At the opening different visitors are lifted, one after another onto the tower by two men in dinner jackets. This work was the prototype for the later work Golden Tower with Charging Tops, besides being a model for a 333 m high tower which was to be crected in Steinplatz, Berlin, in line with a rubble heap, a column and the broadcasting tower of East German Television. The exhibition catalogue takes the form of a poster, its golden letters printed on black paper.“
