The windows of the Palast der Republik reflect parts of Berlin Cathedral as strangers pass along the pavement. Made over a few minutes with the framing held fixed, the sequence allows the movement of passers-by to provide the only variation between images.

Fine art prints on cotton paper, wooden frame and art glass. Edition of 5.

Passages

by Alessandro Vicario

Berlin, an ordinary September afternoon. The rust-coloured windows of the Palast der Republik reflect parts of the cathedral. Strangers pass along the pavement. I took the photographs in this sequence over a few minutes, keeping the framing fixed. The only element that changes from one image to the next is the passage of people.

Berlin, September 2003

Passaggi

di Alessandro Vicario

Berlino, un pomeriggio di settembre come tanti. I vetri color ruggine del Palast der Republik riflettono parti della cattedrale. Sul marciapiede passano persone sconosciute. Ho scattato le fotografie di questa sequenza nell’arco di pochi minuti, mantenendo fissa l’inquadratura. L’unico elemento che cambia da un’immagine all’altra è il passaggio delle persone.

Berlino, settembre 2003
