Snatching the Manure from the Clutches of Nothingness

Conservation of an element of Oskar Dawicki’s installation Walk of Fame (2007). The installation consists of 12 elements – patches of cow manure with artists’ hand prints. One of the cow pats, with the hands of Joanna Rajkowska imprinted on them, had cracked, probably due to extensive travel and the fragility of the material used. The object was glued and reinforced from below to prevent this happening again in the future.
