(English Version below)George Town Diary, 23.-30. August 201827. August, 2018: »On the edge of the historic center, the visitor can imagine what would have happened to old George Town if it hadn't been declared a world heritage site by UNESCO in 2008. (Just take close look at the photographs!). What did happen to old George Town because of that privilege is a constant influx of tourist with a crave for Western-style cafés, serving cappuccino, cake and bagels. It always feels very odd to me that people fly thou-sands of airmiles, producing tons of CO2 to end up in a joint, of which they have plenty at home.«(Peter Bialobrzeski)Über die City DiariesDie Stadt zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts ist das große Thema der City Diaries von Peter Bialobrzeski. In dem bisher 19 Bände umfassenden Projekt untersucht er seit 2013, ob der Entwurf des Bildes einer Stadt, gespeist aus Vorurteilen, Vorgefundenem und medial Vermitteltem in ein spezifisches Bild überführt werden kann. Ob Wuhan oder Wolfsburg - ihn interessieren die von der Globalisierung zunehmend kaschierten kulturellen Unterschiede, die er mittels einer scheinbar objektivierenden Bildsprachesichtbar macht. Dabei schlagen sich auch aktuelle politische und soziale Entwicklungen in Bialobrzeskis Bildern und Tagebucheinträgen nieder. Format und Umfang aller Titel sind identisch. Diese Systematik erlaubt einen vergleichenden Blick auf verschiedenste urbane Situationen. Weitere Bände erscheinen in loser Reihenfolge.About the City DiariesThe city at the beginning of the 21st century is the major theme of Peter Bialobrzeski's City Diaries. In the project, started in 2013 and so far comprising of 19 volumes, he has been investigating whether the pre-conception of a city, a product of prejudices, personal observations and what is conveyed by the media, can be transformed into a specific image. Whether Wuhan or Wolfsburg - Bialobrzeski is interested in the cultural differences increasingly concealed by globalization, which he makes visible by means of a seemingly objectifying aesthetic. Current political and social developments are also reflected in Bialobrzeski's images and diary entries. The format and page count of all titles are identical. This systematic approach allows for a comparative view of a wide array of different urban situations. Further volumes will be published intermittently. 2022, 96 Seiten, Buch.

(English Version below)Sarajevo Diary, 10.-18. April 201918. April, 2019: »[...] It is avantgarde architecture, a mixture of Swiss Brutalism of the eighties and playful brick decoration. I immediately like it and catch sight of the huge apartment complex that has been build for the athletes of the 1984 Winter Olym-pics. Reach Out, that Moroder tune written for the Olympics, starts playing in my head while I sud-denly realize that the parking lot I am looking down at is that very one I had seen days ago in a photo- graph at the Historical Museum. The cars had the typical color of the late 1980s. And they were all wrecks, smashed up by grenades.«(Peter Bialobrzeski)Über die City DiariesDie Stadt zu Beginn des 21.
