RESEARCH: Factum Arte photographic survey

Schwittershytta
Factum Arte have just carried out a full photographic survey of Kurt Schwitters only remaining Merz building on the island of Hjertoya, near Molde in Norway. A facsimile and partial reconstruction of the hut will be made to focus attention on the importance of this building. The work is part of an ongoing project, organized by Littoral Arts to preserve both this building and the Merz Barn in Cumbria. A facsimile of the Schwittershytta will be shown at the RCA London on the 4th of May 2009.
