A “bank space” was installed for the duration of the Werterauschen exhibition. 

The installation consists primarily of a slowly rotating ornament as the bank's logo, coins and banknotes in two display cases, a model car, and an image video. 

The work MAHB refers in content to Sidney Lumet's 1976 film “Network.” The quotations and ornament used in the work are set pieces from the film. The ornament shown in the film for the so-called “Mad As Hell Show” has been used in the context of my work as the logo for the commercial bank MAHB. This ornament also played a formative role in the bank's coins and banknotes.
