- The application is notable chiefly for the floor plan. Interestingly, it was rare to receive one when planning a performance—often only rough room dimensions were available, or one was invited to "come down and check out the space"—but galleries specializing in concrete works tended to have dimensioned plans on file. RSG, which catered to performance and video art, provided better information than most.
