The
town of Koblenz on the Rhine is divided by the river; this division
is not just a geographical one: Koblenz and Ehrenbreitstein on
the two opposite banks have a different history, different architecture,
different social structure. Koblenz is considered the "center".
Ehrenbreitstein is said to be less costly, shabbier, off-center
- is it?
Maquettes of landmarks in Koblenz and Ehrenbreitstein
were transplanted in the city: The "Deutsches Eck" sprouts
from walls and walkways in Ehrenbreitsteinr; a miniature-fortress
was installed in different places in the old town. A game with
the city´s geography, with monument and miniature surprised
the citizens ontheir daily walks and invited them to playfully
rediscover their city.
