Neatorama notices this item I'd previously picked up on
Ananova.
Quote:
A house has been 'dropped upside down' on the roof of the Viennese Museum of Modern Art.
The art project, entitled House-Attack by top local sculptor Erwin Wurm, is supposed to look as if the house has fallen out of the sky and landed on the famous museum in the centre of the Austrian capital.
It actually took two cranes to put the huge sculpture into place, which is complete with a red roof, window boxes and a TV antenna.

So far, so good. Now the part he doesn't get away with:
Quote:
The artist said his work was a statement against over-development.
Wurm said: "There are hundreds of thousands of houses and they are spreading like a plague, like a cancer across our land."

"How horrible it is that the people have their own housing."
