No Tell Hotel

Fancy crawling through a tunnel dug out from underneath a grotty old warehouse in East London after climbing down through a fridge that was sitting in the corner of a porn den/makeshift boxing club? Thought you might and, I have to say, although it took me a couple of circuits round the installation before getting the guts up to climb into the fridge, the whole experience was well worth it. ¶ What the heck am I on about? Well, it’s Christoph Büchel’s installation entitled ‘Simply Botiful’ at Hauser & Wirth Coppermill in Bethnal Green. This exhibition marks the launch of Hauser & Wirth’s newly acquired space. You can see some images of the empty space here. I don’t want to give too much away about Christoph Büchel’s installation but there is a walkthrough on the Hauser & Wirth website if you’re not too keen on surprises. I guarantee won’t recognise the space from these pictures.
