 On 9 october, pages of the book ‘Arnhems Kruisweg’ where placed on the walls of ‘room 19′, with a mixture of wallpaper glue and black paint.

 The wall has been demolished on 11 october, and larger and smaller segments of it where lying amidst the general debris of the building, as foreseen and desired. In fact the pages where placed on the wall for this purpose.

 z\w\a\r\t\24: a long project of Z\W\A\R\T magazine in this building:

“The abandoned building KKN24 is located on Buitenplaats Koningsweg a former military base in Arnhem, The Netherlands. The building was a sleeping-quarter for soldiers, 4 in one room. 39 Rooms in the whole building. The building is waiting to be demolished, meanwhile it transforms back to nature. In october 2014 artist BiOP got permission to use the building for site-specific artworks. He invites several artists to transmute the building and their artwork, 24hours a day. [ ] During Code Rood ( Code Red) the art and the building [could] be visited (every last saturday).” Source: Transmute24 Facebookpage www.facebook.com/transmute24 www.flickr.com/photos/transmute24/

Photos taken on 9 and 11 october 2018.

 Among the ruins of the Transmute building, parts of the wall of the `black room´ with traces of ´Operation 5 \ Page 5´ on them, are waiting to be removed from this location.

They are now considered to be elements of a new stage of this ´black room´ operation. A final stage, in which the pieces of stone seem to desire to become a book again, or pages of a book, sometimes looking very closely like an opened book.

 Operation 5 \ Page 5:

All pages of the book ‘Arnhems Kruisweg’ are placed on the walls of ‘room 18′. Walls and pages are covered in thin black paint - the images and texts remain partly visible.
