The work of Tassilo Letzel is focused on the paradox of the status quo within a society permanently
undergoing changes. His artistic research deals with two geographic areas: suburbia on the one hand and
rural areas on the other. Where farmland is absorbed by the periphery of the cities one can find undefined
places being no longer rural and being not yet urban: terrain vague. During his stay at Amsterdam Tassilo
Letzel will develop a project inspired by the urban and territorial transformation of Stadsdeel Noord.
Tassilo Letzel (*1979 in Munich) works as a freelance cameraman, photographer and filmmaker. In his work
he combines documentary techniques like film, photography and tracking-/bicycle-tours with sculptural
works and installations. More information at http://tassiloletzel.de/
