Description
Die MEMORY MAPS sind der dritte Teil einer Serie von Handschriften, für die die Künstlerin Annette le Fort die Erinnerungen verschiedener Menschen an einen bestimmten Ort gesammelt hat. Zumeist zeigen die Karten öffentliche Plätze, an denen man sich trifft. Die Einträge reichen dabei von Kindheitserinnerungen bis hin zu historischen Ereignissen, die direkt dort auf die Karte geschrieben wurden, wo sie stattgefunden haben. Dabei ergänzen sich die Handschriften und bilden gemeinsam ein kollektives Tagebuch.
The MEMORY MAPS is the third part of a series of Handwritings, in which the artist Annette le Fort gathers memories different people have of one particular place in a city. Most of the maps show squares and other public places where people meet. The memories range from childhood recollections to historical events, with the entries written directly onto the spot where the events took place - adding, overlapping or contradicting each other - to form a collective diary.
