Silke Wagner: Migration and Plant: Cat. Kunstverein HeilbronnHardcover, 1 November 2019

Silke Wagner (1968) is invited to realize her project with the title Migration and Plant in public spaces around Heilbronn. Heilbronn is home to an above average number of people with a migration background. Their share of the ­population is 50%. For her project, Wagner researched plants from the various countries of origin and then combined this information with migration statistics. She intends to have colored foils installed at the railway shelters along the axis train station. Additional explana­tions and ­illustrations on the topic of migration are ­avail­able via an app, as well as flyers. This book documents all foils, as well as the ­accompanying materials, and also includes deepening con­tributions.
