DER BERG

Uploaded by exyzt on Jul 21, 2007
The Palast of the Republik, gigantic monument left from the communist era, was to be replaced by the reconstruction of its predecessor, a XIXth century style palace.
Under the menace of a demolition act, the Palast of the Republik was to live its splendor once more under the name of Volkpalast (the palace of the people). Raumlabor, a groupment of german architects decided to occupy and open the monument to the public. Many architecture installations were planned. The most monumental one was to be performed by Exyzt.
Der Berg ( berg : mountain) is an artificial mountain, a surrealist architectural performance built to react to the absurdity of demolishing part of Berlin's history to reconstruct a long disappeared building.
To take up the challenge, Exyzt had enlarged its team by inviting Serbian and Austrians architects.
This collaboration resulted in a 20 meters high triangulated structure,
made out of scaffolding and fiber glass textile. The installation invaded the theater,
while another team made it spread through the roof and onto the front porch of the building.
Der Berg became a monument inside a monument
In 2006, the Palast der Republik has disappeared from the Berlin map.

I have a golden window from this building - with lots of photos of where it came from and how I aquired it. I think it was the smallest of the windows and weighs approximately 21 kilograms. There is a serial number that can be just seen between the double sheets of glass which should help to identify it's authenticity. Does anyone know where I can sell it ?

l'année 2007 marque effectivement le démantèlement de ce monument d'acier -patrimoine bâti, patrimoine culturel et sociologique. Berlin tend à se débarrasser des monuments nés d'un contexte ségrégationiste... en France, c'est le patrimoine des années 60 -à savoir le logement de masse- que l'on refuse de faire évoluer- détruire reconstruire insipide... entassons toutes les hypocrisies, les mauvaises idées et les bonnes intentions, et l'on obtiendra une bonne montagne de m....
