    Ook_ visitorZentrum came into being with an invitation to different collectives, people and institutions in Kassel to build a shrine. Knowing that ruangrupa's working methods will collide with the organisational structure of GmbH documenta, we thought it would make sense to give attention to ways of organising and being together from different positions and experiences. We were curious to find individuals and groups of people who are not naturally involved in ruruHaus or art events, but are visitors to documenta because they are residents of Kassel, or neighbours. We call them the first visitors to documenta and like to think of them/us as both guests and hosts. The shrines give insights into various 'desires for a different future', from practice and in relation to each other from informal structures. They are not meant to be a work of art or a project, nor an institutional attempt to do better. We sometimes use the phrase: 'documenta gGmbH does not deserve so much attention for the way it is organised'. It's not about improving it or opposing it, but we take the opportunity to come together and use documenta as a tool to strengthen different relationships.
