GESTALTEN.tv: Hoefner and Sachs

Cars, Bees and Banality

Lying on the intersection between art and architecture, the Berlin artist duo Franz Hoefner and Harry Sachs create site-specific temporary architecture, innovative performances and constructive interference in the urban environment.

With a subversive and humorous approach, they have reinvented the vocabulary of urban intervention and ironic commentary of modern city planning. Here, the pair talks to us about the kind of irreverent topics that make us love them-bees, architecture and test driving a car filled with water.

 

 

About The Book "Hoefner/Sachs"

The book Hoefner/Sachs documents and illustrates their subversive projects in detail for the first time. Among the projects featured are miniature bee-cities positioned next to prefab buildings, and tongue-in-cheek mounting of laminate, panels and woodchip as a means of upgrading the cityscape.
