New York based artist Tom Fruin created this glass house sculpture called Kolonihavehus in the plaza of the Royal Danish Library in Copenhagen. Fruin constructed this sculpture from several pieces of plexiglass which were installed between a fabricated metal frame grid. The peices of plexiglass originated from many sources, including a closed- down plexi distributorship near Copenhagen, a framing shop, the basement of the Danish State Art Workshops, and the dumpsters outside the Danish Architecture Centre. The sculpture was brought to life by daily performances by Copenhagen-based CoreAct headed by Anika Barkan and Helene Kvint. The performances included poetry of the Danish Vagn Steen, Computer-controlled light sequences by Nuno Neto and a sound installation by Astrid Lomholt.
