inherited a problem. it's leaked upside or a little out of the way from the city here so we have to communicate a lot here that's why we have gone all out to integrate this location of the city society and the local art scene here. here modern art goes hand in her with historical ambience like this installation made up of security mirrors coupled with organ music by johann sebastian bach in the first month i think you can actually put out on display anywhere and in the past few years i've often noticed that when art is executed in locations that one to richly built is museums it can be especially interesting. that saw several weeks to renovate the former parliament building. it also had new rooms added for temporary exhibitions of contemporary art. suzanne again simon plans to exhibit pieces here by artists who have already made
12:40 am
a splash internationally but by local artists as well. the one about the ash we want to include the local art scene as much as we can and show artists from just laid off both in the collective exhibitions and in may just the only ones who have money but the plan to cooperation with the art of cademy so we're trying to turn this site into an active house for contemporary art mind bending this how thrilling was once was. a mysterious dance of death the shadow planes an installation by dusseldorf based artist hans-peter feldman. it's whirling cast of dolls and figures produces a fantastic spectacle on the wall of. reflecting plato's allegory of the cave where people stare at the shadows on the wall instead of recognizing what's real what's the invoice we'd like to have a lot of rotation in the collection and keep on showing different works from it we
12:41 am
can't just keep on showing the same things even so there are still works that won't be switched and that. the collections choice works are also presented in different ways like man and mouse by german artist katherine a fridge in its joints mouse looms on a bed where a man is sleeping the nightmare turns into art. this feel as knots of work ahead we've managed to create a basic structure that we can work with comfortably if i see vic a twenty one as a kind of work in progress it will go on but i can also imagine that in a couple of years we'll have a situation that's quite different from what we've seen in the recent past. like a twenty one's biggest attraction can be found in its dome the steel wire installation in orbit by argentinian artist thomas sorry say no. it will still be here even after the renovations are complete. now mosque in the question

is tourism always beneficial to the people living in popular travel destinations for many countries and regions tourism is their main source of income but the problem with that is that it can increase prices that the locals can't keep up with especially talk of a callous and it has been observing global development in his latest series highlighting the contrasts that might otherwise go unnoticed. luxury high rise buildings in bangkok surrounded by slums. gigantic new housing projects in addis ababa one of the world's poorest cities. like skyscraper in barcelona right next to a camp set up by omens people. trying to provoke you into thinking hey what is going on here i get better. for soccer for carlos had not been a strength for years on the road visiting cities all over the world to document the
12:43 am
changes they're undergoing. he just wrapped up its capital city project which was shot in asia africa and europe. and honest look for the glaring contradictions in megacities khan between rundown slums and ranger building plan. he wanted to find out if there are common patterns in modern urbanization planning and who really benefits from the current developments. a lot of money mccomas would have been planning all over the world as a pretext for raising rents and property prices. to it similar to the pretext of gentrifying districts by getting creative still live there i mean other than. that i think the border that the people who live in those districts are really being involved in the moment and i don't deny generally the decisions are made without consulting go after them and then. carlos and under scums from barcelona

a city that sensitized him to architectural shifts in urban settings in the last few decades millions and millions of tourists have visited the spanish city and the photographer observed out drastically that changed it housing in barcelona center is now almost exclusively offered by hotels and air b.n. b. brands have more than doubled since two thousand and twelve long term residents have been systematically pushed out. well you're going to get how going to have it that i think this no affects pretty much everyone it's not just about the apartments in central barcelona it also has an effect on at school districts. because if you earn an average wage you can't find an apartment there anymore but if that's the case for many of my friends went in there but it was better and it's affected my family to a family had it. affordable housing has grown scarce in the spanish city yet at the same time huge building projects are being realized like in the district around the forum building which was constructed for
12:45 am
a major international event back in two thousand and four. today the surrounding streets are lifeless lined with luxury hotels and apartments just a few minutes walk away is the law i mean your district nobody wants to invest year anymore but photographers images are a silent accusation. that makes me angry and the polls me. new districts are being built to satisfy private interests but no one cares about the poverty right next door you know but and they get that it often is the effort. and on this uses is also blood cameron to cast light on the striking inequality in major modern cities. like the korean capital seoul. it's one of the wealthiest cities in the world and many public spaces here are now dominated by leisure centers and shopping malls that are at times surreal.
12:46 am
some parts of the city don't even have running water yet they've been forgotten. even though not as a babe or any theo p.r. investment capital drives the housing market there's no place for people without. things are similar in thailand's capital bangkok where a working class neighborhood next to a temple was torn down to promote tourism a parking lot going up in its place. and understand the same mechanisms and approaches everywhere he says many people do profit from modernization and gentrification just not those who desperately need affordable living space his photos aren't strident they're clear and calm they make people think you're going to want to end their i.d.'s there and i think urbanization should always be shaped by the people who live in the district feel like. i have to listen to people's
12:47 am
needs. get them north of off that it wouldn't have been necessary to tear everything down and rebuild from scratch. because as we need to listen to what people say they really need for the biggest we've got and will go out of them under the illusion that. carlos are not going to seize his capital city project as an appeal as a call to arms a call to take back cities by making them livable for every resident. now this wednesday saw the twenty eighth year of german reunification being celebrated to mark the occasion a huge festival was held at the famous brandenburg gate in berlin at the end of the day on wednesday off to music from many different artists there was a massive firework display the audit which the rockets went off with compare lately down to the public how you ask well it sure you.
12:48 am
fireworks for the people by the people that was the concept for this year's closing display of the celebrations on the day of gemini unity and then when. the idea came from the german installation artists mountain but. with just hours to go before the display thirty four year old mountaineer was busy setting things up. pyrotechnicians placed over four hundred rockets on the launch platform and everybody got to vote on the order in which they would be fired off botches interactive project was unique therefore every other month the interactive fireworks platform is the first one in the world that lets the public vote on the order for the rockets to go off so i don't know in advance that the show will end. i don't know what the choreography will look like. in the finale.
12:49 am
but wrote an ad for the online ballot and anyone could take part they just chose a type of rocket and placed it on the firing timeline that displays choreography with set once the last vote was cast it sounds pretty chaotic and that's the point . i wanted to remind people that german reunification was also a last second the current that resulted from many individual decisions. the. fireworks of this parag i guess you could even say noble character. but i was really excited by the idea to put it in the hands of the people instead create a brand new kind of fireworks display. that has a different structure. outwith the old says it's time to put things in a brand new context even something as banal as an a.t.m. can become a work of art. when. i got the a.t.m.
12:50 am
to build the school. i go there's completely and put a come for inside. the idea behind it was kind of happens if a city stops working and where would people meet up and. places would be important . because i thought people needed something like warmth for them to bring them together so that's what the a.t.m. had a warning for. another of his ideas was to let one of his artist friends cut his head i way way for example or maybe order for only a son. another opportunity to touch to relinquish control because we're still the one could buy all of what i've trimmed that a little. has installations turned into a much through interaction. in experiments always in experiments in that sense it's always probably somehow about learning something. and i would
12:51 am
like to think that if i created momentum others would also start thinking about certain things that the artwork addresses. and he convinced the celebrations organizes to give his idea for a democratic fireworks display and try to show fit right in with the festival slogan only with you over three days around six hundred thousand people joined in the festival in central but then. it was and that's our approach was to say hey come and join end take not we're not just going to stand there saying here's your passion take a pencil to we wanted people to go into the kitchen section and participate we said take part in the interactive platform then the fireworks will also be used to start . shortly before ten pm the fireworks show will start any minute now. excitement is building what are you going to focus.
