Michael Landy made an inventory of everything he owned: every item of furniture, every book, every piece of food, every cat toy... The list took three years to complete and it contained 7,227 items. Then, with the help of a large machine and an overall-clad team of operatives, he set about destroying it all. After two weeks nothing but powder remained. Break Down was presented in the former C&A department store on Oxford Street. In this recently closed shoppers' paradise, Landy's consumer nightmare was displayed during a fourteen day period of systematic de-construction.
