The young artist Mira Klug, born in Graz, conceived a two-part installation entitled Fuge (Fugue) especially for the NonStopScheiner pavilion. Two lines are applied around the pavilion, marking a self-contained pedestrian path as an endless loop. In the middle of this pedestrian zone, a monitor shows a bird's-eye view of a roundabout. Three cars occupy it by repeatedly circling. A similar appropriation also takes place in real public space when pedestrians walk through terrain that is spatially delimited for them several times and thus occupy it.
The title Fuge (Fugue) is a musical composition principle that refers to a temporally offset, repetitive theme. Here, the artist alludes to the repetitive circling of the roundabout and the circling in the pedestrian zone.
