BROOKLYN – NEW YORK – ZURICH – THREE URBAN HOTSPOTS
ARTIST STATEMENT
on my first helicopter flight over Manhattan in 1976 I experienced the striking view from above: „Big city, seen from a bird’s Eye View“: the correlation in the structure
the network of streets
the flow lines, the parcs,
the railway connections
the skyscrapers
That’s my most important inspiration for my work to the topic „City“.
My City-Reliefs are made with remnants of paper, wood, plywood, iron: cutted, painted, polished and mounted.
