The dynamic development of the new city center is no longer documented solely through photographs or one's own perception. Thanks to the Berlin artist Evelyn Kuwertz, who was born in Austria, we see the untidy bearer of hopes for urban planning Potsdamer Platz with completely different eyes ... “The bottom is turned upwards, the inside is turned outwards, only the present exists. The question arises as to the nature of change and forgetting, ”writes the artist about her own emotions when the picture was created. And the present is already far away from this moment, the lakes have disappeared, the skyscrapers have grown out of the pits, the first offices have been moved into.

I would like to refer to the website www.evelynkuwertz.eu, which shows an overview of my work since 2000 until today. My interest in the city continues in pictures about European cities. The representation of people in motion is expanded and the subject of portrait in is linked again. Inspired by stays in the south-west of France, nature observation EN found its way into my oeuvre.
