Andrea Pichl: Kiosk in Bloomington, MN

Reimagining a quotidian staple of East German culture in the shadow of a historic building
In dialogue with the recently renovated Kunsthalle Rostock, German artist Andrea Pichl (born 1964) uses discarded pieces of the building to create a structural, abstract newspaper kiosk reminiscent of the
Postzei-tungsvertrieb
of the GDR era, creating a conversation on the legacy of Eastern modernism.
