    Hello,

    I am an artist and architect in New York.
    Some of you may find this project of interest...

    I'm working on a major public art installation with the City of Dresden, Germany. The historic Dresden Cathedral will be transformed with light and will appear to breathe in tandem with the upcoming 70th Anniversary Observance of the Bombing of Dresden. Built in 1738, and destroyed in 1945, the Cathedral was rebuilt in the 1980s.

    Given Dresden's virtual destruction in the closing days of WWII, I think the vision of one of its foremost architectural landmarks appearing to breath will be filled with powerful symbolism of survival and renewal.
