11th April Opening Performnace







'In the shadow of young girls in blossoms' performance took place at Dom-Römer
U-Bahn station on the 11th April from 7 pm. 
The performance was done by Beatrice Steimer (artist of the show) and Young Lee.
Considering the historical figure, Dom Cathedral as the parallel structure, two artists
gave out a piece of madeleine and a cup of magic potion (zaubertrank) to the public. 
The meaning of madeleine  comes from Marcel Proust's novel 'In Search of the Lost Memories'. 
The window display being situated underground also connects to the hidden memory and 
possible alternative belief system.
