"Thirty volunteers spent three days shredding two-thousand New York City telephone books in preparation for one of the most unusual exhibitions ever presented by a New York gallery: Dash Snow and Dan Colen’s NEST. Adapting their infamous “hamster nest” to 76 Grand Street, they revealed to the public a performance they had at that moment created only in private. The resulting pandemonium was on view, in addition to video and photographic documentation. A “Hamster Nest” normally consisted of their shredding enormous amounts of whatever paper material they could get their hands on and ransacking the interior of their selected space in an exuberant overnight fete. Over the years this took place in hotel rooms all over the world, existing only in occasional Polaroids, video, and the memories of exasperated hotel staff." by Jeffrey Deitch
