Occidentally Calling

In this evocative black-and-white composition from the “Occidentally” series, the iconic Fernsehturm at Alexanderplatz pierces through a juxtaposed architectural landscape, symbolizing the convergence of disparate worlds. The scene is further enriched by the presence of “Der Rufer” (“The Caller”), a poignant bronze sculpture by Gerhard Marcks, depicting a man shouting with cupped hands.

Installed near the Brandenburg Gate along Straße des 17. Juni, this figure embodies a call for peace and unity. The backdrop seamlessly blends elements from Amman, Jordan, creating a visual dialogue between East and West. This fusion not only highlights the architectural contrasts but also delves into the cultural and historical narratives that bind these regions, inviting viewers to reflect on the interconnectedness of our global heritage.
