GRAHAM BUDGETT: BERLIN BEI NACHT

[Berlin by Night, 1987]


BERLIN RADIATES

BERLIN RADIATES from Breitscheidplatz out! From here tourists may: look out over the city from atop the Europa-center, take a walk along the glistening snail-trail that is the Ku'damm, see an art exhibition in the Kunsthalle, or be reminded of Berlin's past by the Gedächtniskirche.

Many, however, choose merely to sit by a truly remarkable fountain, which, on warm midsummer evenings, is the focal-point of many eccentric phenomenae. But ignoring, for a meditative moment, the street-artists, skateboarders and throngs of fellow tourists, the still-active mind may totally immerse itself in the playful cascade of structural references arising from the fountain's own form. Beehive, igloo, cathedral and reactor - all inform its perforated dome.
