EINS. UN. ONE...
Eins. un. one…, a work consisting of 16,000 blue, red, yellow, black and white cubes of different sizes. There is a dot on each side of all the cubes, which are spread over a surface measuring 9 meters in diameter. Robert Filliou invokes several options for interpreting the work: "A random stream of 5000 or more cubes on a flat surface, in the hope that this will – at least – give rise to a subtle impression of the interpenetration and identity of the entire cosmos". Or: "Let one cube be given to 5000 individuals who will then carry the exhibit in their pockets as a tangible souvenir of the unity (of the whole)".
