AUSSICHTSPLATZ

Aussichtsplatz - Anna Weichselbaumer

»It could be set in the past or now, but also anywhere in the world, on top of a square with an overview of the city. A woman waiting has the power to get what she wants. It is a woman in the now and yet in the pose of a historical figure. The woman carries a mobile phone in her hand, perhaps just to take pictures, perhaps to throw it away. Being somewhere different can change us, the whole environment can evoke memories or let us get to know new things. And maybe sometimes it's also very interesting to sometimes dream about it and then do it. How many stories, legends like Odysseus, or the Trojan horse have inspired us and brought us closer to the history of democracy. And that's not why it's fascinating to find yourself in places of history and to be open to the world and the great challenges. And that, despite cultural and other differences, we are all human beings in one big, diverse world.«
