The city of the 21st century is a collection of capabilities, a prophet that permanently creates new images and metaphors as well as it itself is a metaphor. A metaphor for hope and fear of the whole society. The annual project “City Metaphors” has been dedicated to this huge creative potential that connects artistic practice, environment and theoretical research.
