Hanne Darboven's 'Wende 80' is a complex, multimedia installation. The works are arranged in a grid reminiscent of the structure of time and memory. The long-playing discs also contain acoustic elements that complement the visual material and enable a synaesthetic experience. This combination of visual and auditory media reflects Darboven's interest in the combination of numbers, language and music.
