Klub der Republik

Gabun wood, acryl glass with copper-coloured mirror foil, metal, construction wood, concrete, graffiti, jeans, subwoover, 360 x 180 x 60 cm, 2002

The „Klub der Republik“ is our proposal for a new use of the empty Palace of the Republic. A model of the PDR in scale 1:50. Inside a subwoofer is playing „Rhythm 76“ in a loop, composed by Carsten Nicolai. The bass-sound-waves make the window-glass vibrate, it feels like standing outside a club. The PDR has been the last „object of desire“ of the Berlin club culture, that used to settle in a lot of empty buildings in Berlin temporarily before their final sales or demolitions.

Outline drawings of the former interior design of the Palace of the Republic serve as a kind of memory report for a determined call back of selected furniture for the authentic final wear out of the building as Club of the Republic.
