The role of the artist in the performance that was staged for seven days after the exhibition opening was to play a taxi driver, receive calls and bring visitors to the museum in his car (an automobile Zastava 101 will only be used). The title of the exhibition mainly refers to this performance, as on a formal level it puts the artist in the position of a subject who is in the service of the museum and acts as a laison between society and the museum as an institution, which presents action in the context of art. In the other, contextual domain, this act of mediation (transfer of visitors to the museum) between the audience and the exhibition, which focuses on the work of art as a machine investigating the relation between the body and a utilitarian form, will help the visitor in an experiential sense and increase his or her understanding of the exhibition context.
