There is (there was?) a nice piece of scaffolding in Berlin: an empty plot near carefully restored Leipziger Platz was filled with a green fabric with an ad, reducing urbanity to an up-right surface or – in other words – to a shallow scenography that simply follows the spatial rules of the square. An amazing happens at the back: a steel mountain of exposed scaffolding seems to be constantly moving, marching towards the square and leaving traces of the move in the space – as the futurists imagined long time ago. Is this side not that important as the green – in both meanings – one?
And the last question: how did they come up with the green colour for the cladding in this perfectly grey neighbourhood?
