Kurzfassung:
Using two examples, the Harburg Monument against Fascism by Jochen Gerz and Esther Shalev-Gerz, and Horst Hoheisel's project for a submerged mirror-image of the Aschrott Fountain in Kassel, concludes that provocative attempts to create monuments that would challenge positive, redemptive attitudes about the German past have failed. Memory work relating to the Holocaust has been displaced by present concerns of German citizens.
