Bruxelles 1993\/2003: At the circular highway, five minutes apart from each other, there are located the two build utopias „La cit\u00e9 moderne“(I) and “ La cit\u00e9 mod\u00e8le“(2). 1922 and 1958 designed and constructed close to at that time up-to-date vision of architecture and urban planning. Conceptions \u2013 for time and space \u2013 couldn’t have been more contrary. The black and white photographs I took 1993 \u2013 attracted by the prominent names of the housing projects \u2013 while visiting the sites, are description of a pedestrian not trying to depict something that a photograph cannot tell and represent. The colour photographs, taken on a visit ten years later \u2013 2003 \u2013 are also descriptions of the objects and places \u2013 probably quite far from a thinkable final conclusion. Architectural photographs can only appeal to the viewer’s imagination and availability of world\/reality.<\/p>\n
The installation consists of six black and white photographs each taken 1993 in each housing project; one designed photo-didplay about the \u201cCit\u00e9 moderne\u201d based on a colour photograph taken in 2003, and three designed photo-displays about the \u201cCit\u00e9 mod\u00e8le\u201d. The installation is accompanied by a sculpture (25 x 25 x 25 cm, bronze, steel, patina and glas) that was designed and build with two fragments \u2013 the hedge and the steel pergola \u2013 of the \u201ccit\u00e9 jardin\u201d (Cit\u00e9 moderne) and the \u201ccit\u00e9 radieuse\u201d (Cit\u00e9 Mod\u00e8le).<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
