Abstract
When choosing from the over 1,000 different proposals we received for the Media Façade of the Museum of Contemporary Art, Zagreb (MSU), my attention was captured by the video material that Mathias Fuchs had sent us. The sharp colors that characterized the video, the lights blinking with explosions, the sharp movements of the ”˜warriors’ that were coordinated and choreographed but at the same time aggressive and war like, all of these elements contributed to create a feeling in the viewer of being trapped between a choreographed dance and an imminent transformation of the characters into a real menace ready to pop out of the screen.
