A quarter and a whole.
City Lab on the move in the Gallus
24. April – 6. September 2015
The Gallus is situated in the heart of the city – a quarter within a whole. The exhibition took place from 24. April to 6. September 2015 and showed the results of a ten-month collaboration with people from the district, a special place full of history and stories. These stories are about joy of life and hardship, about belonging, transit and the change over time. Formerly a major industrial and working-class area of Frankfurt, the Gallus is currently a multifaceted place full of diversity. It is a quarter of Frankfurt – but in itself a whole, whose unity lies in its diversity. Almost 200 people took part in the fifth participatory CityLab on the move exhibition. In their contributions to the exhibition, they shared their thoughts on how the neighborhood felt to them – the past and the "present" Gallus. The exhibition invited people to smile and to reflect. Paintings, photographs, text and video works were on display.
The exhibition space was located at the Galluswarte in the former BMW-Glöckler building (Kleyestr. 1, 60326 Frankfurt). During the exhibition period, three festival blocks took place there with offerings from residents, artists and institutions, providing a view of a highly dynamic district.
