He reveals insights about the difference between measured time versus experienced time through his single, lifelong work titled: OPALKA 1965/1-oo images of recent exhibitions include: Kunstmuseum Bonn A description of the Millenium Passage, Opalka's most challenging attempt (New Year 1999-2000) to address the public to think about the relativity of time, serves as general introduction to get familiar with his concept.
