Remaking the Landscape

Aims

To show just how devastating industrial activity has been in former East Germany – both visually and in terms of disrupting peoples’ lives.

Provides:

  • First rate visual images of large-scale derelict landscapes in the lignite mining zone
  • Images and interviews which paint a picture of economic collapse in Leipzig and the surrounding countryside
  • Examples of successful economic recovery and environmental restoration – on both a small and grand scale
