Christian Philipp Müller, Tohuwabohu, © Thomas Eugster / Christian Philipp Müller

The Hebrew word "Tohuwabohu” fluctuates between the colloquial "giant mess" and Luther's Bible translation "formless and void". This is what the Swiss artist Christian Philipp Müller calls his installation and performance series that focuses on the history of the Haus der Kulturen der Welt. His installation, which creates order out of chaos, can be viewed on the walls in the open foyer.

See the "Tohuwabohu" performance here.
