One hundred photos of well-known and little-known places in Berlin - always unpopulated - to send in postcard format. Berlin has hardly ever been seen like this. 'Iconographic images of Berlin are well known and come in a variety of tones: Sarah Eick has now achieved the great feat that even native Berliners:Sarah Eick has now achieved the great feat that even native Berliners who have seen a great many photographs of their home city will admire: her photos depict two fellos Berlin motifs, but at the same time they are works of a great, translocal, abstract poetic quality. The familiar buildings and cityscapes appear peculiarly contextless, almost like UFOs. Without any form of historicising or nostalgic pathos, Eick gives them great dignity. Even a snack bar looks sublime in her work.' - Tanja Dückers, writer, publicist and art historian.
