In response to the exhibition ‘Ken Friedman: 92 Events’ at the Adam Art Gallery, artists were invited to respond to specific works, in this case the ‘event’ entitled Do-It-Yourself Monument.

The monument was constructed primarily from material found in the Adam’s storage areas and workshops, comprised of pieces of old installations, scaffolding, tools, cleaning supplies, etc…
