brāhha – Opening

Presentation with Friends of the Weissenhof Estate, Ann-Kathrin Müller & Julia Schäfer → Bruckmannweg 10 ↗︎

There is a gap in the Bruckmannweg of the Weissenhofsiedlung: Nothing reminds of the building by Stuttgart architect Richard Döcker, which was destroyed in 1944. Starting from the remains preserved underground, brāhha explores Döcker's positions on the rebuilding of Stuttgart: as head of the central office for reconstruction (ZAS), he proposed to have the city leveled and reforested. From a feminist perspective, the project by the artists Ann-Kathrin Schäfer and Julia Müller illuminates the urban planning of post-war modernism and the (in)visibility of monuments in urban space. The Old High German term brāhha stands for "breaking up, the first plowing of the field."
