On June 9th at 6pm the Sechse­läu­tenplatz was sunny and the weather was so pleasantly warm that we sat on the Sechse­läu­tenplatz chairs or stood around them in our T-shirts. Monica Germann and Glenna her daughter arrived first with a full shopping cart and already laid out glasses and snacks. They supplied the visitors with vodka and Red Bull from their storage in the cart. This selection of drinks was completed with my cucumber cocktail with ginger and lime, beer and a badminton set. Snacks were also available. In shifts, acquain­tances, friends and strangers came by for a longer or shorter chat or enjoyed with us for several hours on the airy Sechse­läu­tenplatz. Everyone who came by and interacted with us for a shorter or longer period of time received the label 'LEISURE ARTIST' in large or small format on a body part of their choice. Nobody refused to wear this 'label'.
