For the past twelve years Sophia Kesting and Dana Lorenz have been scrutinising, through the medium of photography, the square of Peaceful Revolution (Platz der friedlichen Revolution) in Leipzig and its process of transformation. Wilhelm-Leuschner-Platz is representative of the ongoing negotiation on how to handle the legacy of GDR architecture and the conflicts in urban planning between societal and economic interests. Only with the conclusion of their work, the controversial usage and development plans that have been under discussion years find closure.
Under the eponymous title Asphalt, Steine, Scherben. 2012-2024, the artists stage the book in space. |
