Siggi Hofer presented Americans, an installation of architectural models and collages on paper.

Susanne Jirkuff examined consumer culture in her video work, exploring how the pervasive effects of mass media and consumerism, accelerated by globalization, erase national and regional distinctions from our individual identities.

Partners Lisa Schmidt-Colinet and Alexander Schmoeger presented subVERSION in L.A., an exploration of the relationship between a city’s architecture and its narratives. This project examined the ways in which myth has influenced actual space in the city.
