Olaf Metzel: Into the Public

Edited by Fritz Barth. Text by Olaf Metzel, Marlene Streeruwitz.
Published by Hatje Cantz

Olaf Metzel's works for public space are explicit critiques of German politics and society, and always attract attention. "13.04.1981," consisting of piles of road barriers, is probably his most famous work: created in 1987, it makes reference to the 1981 Berlin riots triggered by a false report of the death of RAF prisoner Sigurd Debus. This volume surveys works from 1982 to 2007.
