installation takes the ingredients that comprise every city, assembling
them into a city that is New York, Berlin, Rome and Tel Aviv at the
same time.
The nightlife area, the business district, the shopping
street, the hip quarters, the rich quarters - you find them in New
York, Berlin, Rome, Tel Aviv, and every other big city around the
world. Contemporary urban nomads can experience variations within
corresponding parts of cities, wherever they go. This installation
focuses on globalized perceptions of cities. No-one needs to choose
one favorite city any more: You can take the best of each city and
assemble the pieces to create one city that's perfect just for you.
Visitors are presented with corresponding images
of different cities shown on three big screens. The result is a
single city simultaneously made up of fascinating, endearing and
unique details of New York, Berlin, Rome and Tel Aviv. Everyone
can dive into what becomes one big subjective city.
