Each work in this series is named after a painting by the German Romantic artist Caspar David Friedrich. Instead of diminishing the interiority of the spaces they hang in by allowing us to see outside, Rondinone’s metal windows reinforce a sense of isolation from the external world and provoke a palpable sense of enclosure.
