What is Outside?

Between Hönow and Tierpark

Art in the Underground 2014-15

In collaboration with Jochen Becker, Eva Hertzsch, Uwe Jonas, Folke Köbberling, Andromachi Marinou-Strohm, Adam Page, Birgit Schlieps

Sub-urbanisation is well underway: at the front a new housing development, at the back a wasteland, in between warehouses, road and rail routes, then shopping centres next to parks and, right at the back, housing estates across decades and carpets of single family homes, kept apart by a bit of woodland. Suburbia is becoming “complete” as a place. Planners call what results a “polycentrical total place” or an “in-between city” (“Zwischenstadt”, Thomas Sieverts). Back-offices, airports, leisure industry facilities, logistic hubs, villas and detached housing spread themselves further than their city’s boundaries can confine them.
