Calendar

The project »un/common ground« by the Class Artistic Acting and Research by Prof. Christin Lahr und Sven Bergelt from the Academy of Fine Arts Leipzig  is based on the idea of bringing the outside, the public and the common, indoors.

A closed oval made of concrete, designed as a walkway, becomes a manifestation of public space. Visitors are invited to use the walkway according to their own needs and to shape forms of social interaction. During previous exhibitions, the curb got covered with stickers, paint, and traces of use.

These inscriptions have become part of the work and extend the sculpture, and will be included in future exhibitions.
