    Hiking

    The fact that the lettering »Love your city« is emblazoned above the aisle on the north-south route that cuts the city center in two, which is still controversial to this day, may seem like biting irony. The artist, however, to whom this work goes back, was quite serious.

    Since the Art Cologne 2007, this 26-meter-long lettering in the typeface of the 1950s adorns the roof of the language school Berlitz over the North-South journey. Idea and design come from the conceptual artist Merlin Bauer, who had suggested in the discussions about the threatened demolition opera and Schauspielhaus on Offenbachplatz to think about Cologne's post-war architecture.
