Luther is one of forty ‘thoughts’ that Mauri presented on forty screens at the ‘Warum ein Gedanke einen Raum verpestet?/Perché un pensiero intossica una stanza?’ exhibition-installation (inv. 700): words that were significant for various reasons, arranged in a scattered order, as if in a stream of consciousness.
