Seeing Waidmarkt Anew: Artistic Intervention with Moritz Riesenbeck
On October 24, 2026, the guided walk Mapping Waidmarkt – Event 4 invites you to discover the Kölner Waidmarkt from a new perspective. The focus is on the interdisciplinary project by Moritz Riesenbeck that combines art, urban history, architecture, and the perception of public space.
A City Tour Between Art and Urban Change
The walk leads through a significant inner-city space in Cologne and makes visible how local history, social use, and urban development overlap. Observation, conversation, and artistic interpretation open new access to the sights and spatial peculiarities of the Waidmarkt.
The Mobile Capsule as a Anchor Point
At the center of Mapping Waidmarkt is a movable, multifunctional capsule. The architecturally sculptural object simultaneously recalls a time capsule, an archive, and a mobile place of gathering. As a recognizable anchor point, it changes its function and responds to the atmosphere of the surrounding urban environment.
Sound, Memory, and Cultural Heritage
The project builds on collected acoustic impressions and sound walks. Sounds, voices of memory, materials, and atmospheres of the Waidmarkt are experienced as an artistic archive. The event thereby connects sensory perception with expert insights into architecture, urban development, and cultural heritage.
Free Admission and Barrier-Free Access
Participation in the event is free of charge. The entrance area of the event venue is fully accessible for wheelchair users; designated disabled parking spaces are available. Registration for individual events is provided for via the project page.
