From the exhibition 'Anxiety Attack' by Monica Bonvicini at Modern Art Oxford. I actually went to see this exhibition but her work did not particularly register with me at that time. Funny how your interests change as your work changes. http://artcritical.com/thinkpieces/DGBonvicini.htm

ByMonica Bonvicini and Sam Durant. Their work Break it / Fix it is an architectonic intervention in space consisting of various building materials. Instead of an open space, visitors enter an installation of wood, metal and glass. Starting from the reflection that the Secession (gallery where it was exhibited) is historically the first white cube in the history of exhibitions, the artists counter the original exhibition space with a spatial construction consisting of the word CAGE. The installation is based on two aphorisms from Ludwig Wittgenstein: "Running full tilt against the limits of language? Language is not a cage." "This running against the walls of our cage is perfectly, absolutely hopeless."http://www.secession.at/art/2003_bonvicini_e.html
