Europe: In Third Person deals with memory at geographical or metaphorical edges of Europe. It referrs to the video Zeit (2003) by Ingeborg Strobl, which shows the decay of the Jaramart Europa (1955–2008) in Warsaw. Strobl’s video, in the mumok collection since 2005, is tagged with Film, Architektur, Raum, Zeit, Verfall, Raster, Struktur. In a similar way, it examines the the narrative of abandonment using poetry and architecture to approach the moment of decay without taking hold of it — in a condition, where no one else interprets one’s own thoughts.
