On the evening of 24 september 35 actors and extras behaved as exhibition visitor in an enclosed gallery space. They watched a display on which guests outside could be seen. They ignored the invited people who stood outside. The audience outside could not enter the exhibition space and watched the performance. Inside a display was mounted on the wall on which the public was visible.
The performance was filmed and runned during the four weeks after on a rear projection screen that was mounted on the two windows of the gallery. The sound recorded during the opening was heard outside for people passing by.
