This book borns from the J. MAYER H.’s walk-in installation for the Berlinische Galerie, in Berlin,  in exhibition since September 16th 2011 until April 9th 2012.

Called “Rapport - Experimentelle Raumstrukturen von J. MAYER H.”, the book has texts from Ursula Mueller, Thomas Koehler, Georg Vrachliotis, design by Anja Lutz and photos by Ludger Paffrath.

"For the museum's 10-metre high exhibition space J. MAYER H. has developed a walk-in installation. Walls and floor are clad in carpeting, on which data security patterns are printed in black and grey. The work's space-consuming concept negates the strict geometry of the entrance hall. The considerably enlarged, repeating patterns produce a flickering impression and transform the white cube into a playful scenario of interpermeating forms and structures.

Supplementary three-dimensional models translate the two-dimensional patterns into concrete forms. The catalogue of the exhibition includes various illustrations, explanatory texts and a commented biography."
