Tommy Schmidt has recreated Putin’s six-metre-long table – a symbol of distance and alienation – on a 1:1 scale. The PUTISCH is used for conversations and other encounters that overcome distance, as well as a stage for readings, concerts, performances and so on. It thus becomes a symbol of rapprochement and understanding. Werksviertel-Mitte Kunst makes this project possible as a cooperation partner.
