TAKE A LOOK IN THE MIRROR

The Urban Project LITFASS GOES URBAN advocates for the freedom of the 24 listed Litfaß columns in Berlin, which should no longer be leased for commercial advertising. They represent not only a piece of historical heritage, which alone should be reason enough to protect them from advertising use, but also a unique and significant part of the public visual space, deserving democratic and artistic utilization.

The inspiring art installation TAKE A LOOK IN THE MIRROR, inspired by Peter Fox’s (himself a true Berliner) iconic track, delves into the hidden monsters within us all.

TAKE A LOOK IN THE MIRROR urges us to confront our own inner depths instead of constantly scrutinizing others. The message is clear: It’s time to clean up our own backyard.

… es steckt mit dir unter einer Haut
Und du weißt es will raus ans Licht
Die Käfigtür geht langsam auf und da zeigt es sich
Das zweite Gesicht …

– Peter Fox
