ERASE
THE PAST
In the East and West sections of Berlin, shortly after the city was reunited, pictures are displayed in locations far distant from one another. On the western side: a raised hunting seat – a tripod?, here, too, Gerz is playing with his tools – in a wooded area. We see a seat from which the politically prominent had hunted since the Kaiserreich (Kaiser Wilhelm, von Papen, Goering, Honnecker).
