Project in Progress
Collaboration was one of the mainstays of this project. A large number of people, beginning with but not limited to the students, faculty, and staff of our university, were directly involved in various capacities in bringing this exhibition to life. Among them, the contribution of Mark Dion's assistant, William Bryan Purcell, deserves particular mention.He arrived on site slightly ahead of the artist himself and,working from the written instructions with which he had been provided.threw himself unreservedly into preparing the SIte and other work. |

With their high ceilings, large windows, and large entrance halls, the Occidental-style wooden buildings of the early Meiji period have a great deal of open space when compared to contemporary buildings. During the day light streams into the rooms from outside, and at night the light from inside shines beautifully outside.
