Mirjam Hagoort makes walls tell stories in Utrecht

Not every piece of art can hang on every wall. Utrecht's Galerie Kuub has one such wall, which is a challenge for anyone wishing to hang a work of art in the otherwise generous space. This is because the wall is medieval, and over the centuries has been given more layers, stamps and anchors than an average new-build house will be able to handle in its lifetime. With or without a sofa in front of it.
