The ground beneath the drilling rig collapsed, leaving a large hole with a diameter of 70 metres (The Gates of Hell). To avoid poisonous gas discharge, it was decided to burn it off.

The ‘House Attack’ artistic installation is Wurm’s latest work. It was installed on the external side of the building of Museum Moderner Kunst (MUMOK) in Wien, Austria.

The ‘House Attack’ looks exactly as it sounds. Artist installed a whole house at the upper part of MUMOK building and positioned it so it exactly looks like someone threw the house onto the building.
