It was this characteristic that made him want to learn more about the apparently anonymous and ubiquitous cheap bentwood café chairs he picked up in German flea markets to furnish an arts lab theatre he was running in Hamburg at the start of the 1970s.

Gudrun Wolfrath Mar 30, 2012:
Ramey: You are right. "experimentell" and "lab" are perfect matches.
Ramey Rieger (X) Mar 30, 2012:
Hello Gudrun! If the text is referring to this special place, then you're right. I would then add then name. If it is speaking generally then I would prefer my suggestion, as there have been hundreds of art labs in the '70s and '80s - I was a member of one in New York in '82 that not only put on experimental theaters pieces, but also produced cabaret and "performance parties".
Gudrun Wolfrath Mar 30, 2012:
"experimentelles Theater" finde ich auch gut, aber in diesem Kontext wurde es so bezeichnet:
"1970 gründete er mit Freunden und Haustieren im Stadtteil Altona den Künstlerclub Fucktory in einer leerstehenden Fabrik. Mit internationalen Künstlergruppen organisierte und inszenierte er provokante Theaterstücke und so genannte schwarze Messen, welche beim Feuilleton Anerkennung fanden."
