Bulloch's manifesto and rules

I have only seen her works in art books before.  On my visit to Berlinische Galerie today, I saw the amazing works by Canadian born Berlin artist Angela Bulloch for the first time.  Titled Information, Manifesto, Rules and other leaks ... , Bulloch's show consists of found texts presented with a new design layout and transformed into monumental wall paintings and posters.

Bulloch's works remind me of my favourite artists Liam Gillick and El Lissitzky.  Lissitzky's and Hungarian artist Lajos Kassák's constructivist works were aptly shown at BG at the same time.
