In this complex Berlin collage, different levels of the city's history, art and everyday culture blend into a dense urban fabric. The collage paints a multi-layered picture of Berlin, a city characterised in equal measure by its rich history, its dynamic present and its artistic diversity. It captures the spirit of a metropolis that is constantly changing and yet honours its past:
Molecular Man: This sculpture symbolises the interconnectedness and complexity of urban life. It represents the connection between people and their integration into the urban fabric.
"Stop Wars" House of Statistics: An expression of political and social statements in the city. It represents Berlin's role as a centre of political movement and social change.
Olympic Stadium: A historic sports monument that recalls both glorious and dark times in the city's history and reflects the diversity of sporting and cultural events in Berlin.
Checkpoint Charlie: A symbol of the division of Germany and later reunification. It commemorates the conflicts of the Cold War and the overcoming of division.
Taken together, these elements reflect Berlin's unique atmosphere as a place of constant change and cultural diversity. The collage invites visitors to explore the depths of the city's history while celebrating its vibrant present.
