25. SOUNDBITE (English) Jochen Gerz, artist:
"At the time the Polish capital was not flooded with contemporary art. So people were pretty shocked about - "What does it mean?". You have this kind of eclipse. You see a black picture and the picture is done out of many, many images but the images don''t ''look at you'', but ''look at the wall''. And it creates a kind of mysterious and threatening image. When you turn it around I got the video, the video I got for this piece comes straight from New York. And it is a chimney fire that many people in America put themselves into the chimney."
