"In Pulfer’s new environment Entscheidungshaus or House of Choice, a tent like structure is stretched out across the room using coloured ribbons that connect and hang the tent in the space. Attached to the ribbons are small ceramics and overalls, made by the artist and available for the audience to wear. The overalls and the tent are made from the same stretchable and semi-transparent, undyed cotton fabric. A tableaux made out of pieces of green cloth and ink painted fabric has been sewn onto the back wall of the tent. In the House of Choice visitors are presented with the option to put on an overall to synthesize with the installation as well as to participate with others already in costume. The costume holds the potential for the audience to become a performer, but also to be camouflaged by the material of the tent. A soundtrack of guitar music, made by the artist whilst wearing the costume, fills the room. The House of Choice installation is juxtaposed by an installation of smaller textile wall pieces on self-build wooden stretchers, paper drawings, ceramics as well as ink painted fabrics that hang in a salon style manner in the smaller rooms of the gallery. Made during Pulfer’s five months residency earlier this year in Nürnberg, they can be seen as documents, diaries and experiments that were previously exhibited at Kunstverein Nürnberg as part of his 2013 solo show Zustand der Intensivierung (A state of Intensification). The installation includes a sofa, aiming to provide an atmosphere of relaxation." - Hollybush Gardens, "Reto Pulfer: DIE GELASSENHEIT EINER ENTSCHEIDUNG (The Placidity of a Choice)"
