The RBook Roadshow

FROM THE WALL INTO THE ROOM

The RBook Roadshow never settles for pictures on a wall. It takes over the room. Born from sixteen months inside California’s R Gruppe, it travelled through five distinct stations: Porsche Experience Center Hockenheimring, Porsche on Sylt, the ZeitHaus at the Autostadt Wolfsburg, Leica Welt in Wetzlar and the Vonderau Museum Fulda.

Every stop was rebuilt from scratch. Fine Art Works met rare Porsche icons, Mugshots, personal objects, road films and voices that appeared from nowhere. At the ZeitHaus, the idea expanded across roughly 200 square metres for around five months and reached more than 100,000 visitors. Across the complete roadshow, more than 120,000 people entered its world.

Conceived, curated and built by Frank Kayser and his team. No final stop. The road stays open.

VON DER WAND IN DEN RAUM

Die RBook Roadshow gibt sich nicht mit Bildern an der Wand zufrieden. Sie nimmt den Raum ein. Entstanden aus sechzehn Monaten mitten in der kalifornischen R Gruppe, führte sie durch fünf eigenständige Stationen: Porsche Experience Center Hockenheimring, Porsche auf Sylt, ZeitHaus der Autostadt Wolfsburg, Leica Welt in Wetzlar und Vonderau Museum Fulda.

Jede Station wurde von Grund auf neu gebaut. Fine Art Werke trafen auf seltene Porsche-Ikonen, Mugshots, persönliche Objekte, Road Movies und Stimmen, die scheinbar aus dem Nichts kamen. Im ZeitHaus wuchs die Idee für rund fünf Monate auf etwa 200 Quadratmeter und erreichte mehr als 100.000 Besucher. Über die gesamte Roadshow betraten mehr als 120.000 Menschen ihre Welt.

Konzipiert, kuratiert und gebaut von Frank Kayser und seinem Team. Keine Endstation. Die Straße bleibt offen.
