New York artist Tom Fruin's outdoor sculpture "Kolonihavehus" has the presentation of a friendly and colourful stained-glass house in the plaza of the Royal Danish Library in Copenhagen. Forged by thousand pieces of reclaimed plexiglass in sizes of 2x2 to 24x36 inches. Gathered from many sources, including a closed-down plexi distributorship near Copenhagen, a framing shop, the basement of the Danish State Art Workshops, and the dumpsters outside the Danish Architecture Center.
"Kolonihavehus" were originally small garden sheds designed to give cramped and often drained city-dwellers a small plot and a refuge from city life. Now, the masterpiece showcase daily performances by Copenhagen-based CoreArt headed by, Anika Barkan and Helene Kvint, featuring poetry of the Danish Vagn Steen, light sequences by Nuno Neto and sound installaion by Astrid Lomholt.
