FINAL PROJECTS

9/4/09 to 9/6/09

MAK Center for Art and Architecture L.A. at the Schindler House, 835 North Kings Road, West Hollywood,

Artistic partners Wouter Osterholt and Elke Uitentuis are based in Warns, the Netherlands. They investigated the concept of “home,” focusing their efforts in Victorville, a Los Angeles exurb that had significantly suffered the effects of the housing bubble. In order to consider the plight of the American dream, the artists created a small, two-story “McMansion” which they wheeled through the streets of Victorville, using it as a catalyst for engaging the citizenry. Employing the mobile home as a set, Osterholt and Uitentuis made a video documentary for the Final Projects exhibition.
