"The exhibition was six rooms, each room with installations of a woman's life seen by her lover, husband, or son. Attached to those rooms were conceptual rooms and instructions in a form of a book called "other rooms."

Essentially, the book is instructions for a performance: super-abstracted descriptions of rooms with intermixed musings and urgings.  The performance aspect is embodied both in the descriptions of rooms to be constructed, and in the tasks that visitors are instructed to perform (such as writing a letter to a friend, drawing a picture, et cetera). However, even when taken outside of the context of that performance, it still has meaning and is regarded as a "classic" artist's book.
