The Swiss video artist Pipilotti Rist has established an international reputation with her large three-dimensional audiovisual installations. Visitors lie back on soft platforms, cushions or even beds to watch the images on the ceiling, the floor and on transparent curtains. In the spring of 2009 she transformed the exhibition space of the Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen in one large installation. ‘Let Your Hair Down’ builds upon these installations.
