Max Neuhaus

1996
Hamburger Bahnhof Berlin,


Some points regarding the Hamburger Bahnhof project: 

1. I would like very much to realize it, of course.

2. When I was in Berlin for the festival Matthias Osterwold and I met with Eberhard Blume.

3. The proposal is for the two arched entrance spaces - a part of the original building designed by my grandfather's grandfather.

4. I would create a new work in the 'Identical' Spaces series there. These works take two spaces which a physically identical and by sound alone transform them into spaces which are perceptually different.

5. I made a proposal drawing for this idea which Osterwold has on loan.

6. Osterwold was supposed to push the project, but I have heard anything from him about it in several years.
