About this audio guide
This guide to Dresden-Neustadt follows a sculptor, a winter in St. Petersburg in the mid-nineties, and the run-down back courtyards she and two neighbours were invited to remake. It is a story about water, weather and a facade that waits for bad days. Best heard in the Courtyard of the Elements of the Kunsthofpassage, ideally under a grey sky.
