[no title] 1978

Curator: At the Tate, we have a print by Gerd Winner, an untitled work showing a street view. It presents two nearly identical perspectives, one above the other. What's your initial reaction? Editor: Bleak. And repetitive. It's like a visual echo, amplifying the emptiness. I feel trapped by those looming brick walls. Curator: The duplication could be seen as symbolic. Perhaps mirroring the cyclical, unchanging nature of urban life, or the psychological effect of routine. Editor: I suppose it's a stark reminder of how our environments can shape our inner landscapes. Still, I'd rather see a sunrise. Curator: It encourages contemplation on the built environment and its effect on our minds. Editor: Well, it certainly made me think... about needing a vacation!
