RUSSIAN TRAMPOLINE

Canadian artist Patrick Bérubé made his installation 'Demi-Mesure' by putting a trampoline in a half-height room.

The installation was among others shown in the exhibition 'Ceci n'est pas un Casino'. In this context the trampoline wonderfully resembles the roulette wheel ... and the chance of winning at the roulette table is probably as big as not bumping your head in Bérubé's installation (not to mention the frustration of lack of freedom inherent to the use of the trampoline!).
