BED SPIRAL
FROM REBECCA HORN

Bed spiral from Rebecca Horn

Aston Martin V12 Vanquish 2001
Photographed in Mannheim, 2002

Two works of art meet, the brute Aston Martin Vanquish meets a filigree art installation, the bed spiral by Rebecca Horn, staged in a ptivate museum in Mannheim. The remarkable tranquillity in this “oneshot” lives from the finely and meticulously thought-out lighting. To make the light even softer, all the large windows were covered with diffuser foils. The result is a consummate masterpiece of craftsmanship, with no room for improvement through Photoshop.
