A staged theft, Ulay had gone into the museum beforehand and propped open a security exit door, to enable himself a quick getaway! Eventually Ulay made his way to the house of a Turkish immigrant in a poor neighbourhood in Berlin, where he installed the painting. The resulting photographs and video that document the performance offer a wonderful overview of the action.Exhibitions
