R.W.F. (Rainer Werner Fassbinder), 1993

Installation of bed, cushions, chair, carpet, wall paint, and reflective appliqué, photocopied image of Rainer Werner Fassbinder

For a 1993 solo exhibition, Dominique Gonzalez-Foerster transformed an entire apartment in Cologne into an imaginary film set, evoking Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s practice of using his own apartment as a film location. R.W.F. is the only extant work from Gonzalez-Foerster’s exhibition which featured a sequence of rooms, with reference to RWF films such as Lola and Veronica Voss.
