METRO/POLIS is a concurrence of the other and the own, difference and sameness, unity and diversity. These components lay the foundations for thought, discussion and resistance. The city is a moving home, a safe haven in foreign parts.

Wolfgang Lehrner’s idea of Metro/Polis is to think beyond the real urban situation with all of its principles. A fictitious aspect comes into play. The pictures of Athens speak to us indirectly but forcefully. The impenetrability and shapelessness of Athens induces the viewer to discover in order to be inventive. At a time of uncertainty, certainty must make way for assertion.
