The Republic of the Facades
Within an area of 1000 square meter, the main hall of the former Palast der Republik was flooded with water and a mazy city of facades was set up. The visitors could move through this Republic of the Facades with rubber boats, accompanied by tourist-guides, they could become active, changing rules in the parliament, discuss certain facades in the academy, visit a course at the Gondolieri-school, get a license to conduct a taxi-boat, or just see the red-light-district, close to the harbour.
