The city is an artwork in itself, as its urban and architectural structure creates unique spaces that offer emotions and experiences on various scales. Details and sculptures are used to build the city’s nature and recognisability. The paper presents an approach to the city as an exhibition, where the relationship between the environment and the displayed object is created. What is the contemporary role of these works of art, such as sculpture, in urban space? Do they only fill the space or commemorate historical facts, or were they consciously arranged in relationship with their surroundings to create unique values?

Abstract This article pairs Bibliothek, a memorial in Berlin against the Nazi book-burning of May 10, 1933, with the library in Wim Wenders’ film Der Himmel über Berlin (1987) as sites to reflect on loss with the disappearance of material books from the library and the conversion of libraries into information centers in the era of the internet and digital reproduction. It explores loss by taking up arguments of Walter Benjamin concerning artworks and by applying his theory of loss to books that exist, unlike works of art, only because of mass technical reproduction. It then examines how to argue for loss in ontological and even civilizational terms, especially when the rational justification for the massive clearance of books is justified by the short-term utilitarian calculus of benefit and gain that determines that there is no loss at all. By way of conclusion, it offers a sketch of the new library as having heightened responsibilities in the pursuit of truth as a center for documentation akin to an incident room at the scene of a crime. In this regard, the Topography of Terror Documentation Center on Wilhelmstrasse in Berlin on the site of the former Gestapo Headquarters is both a paradigm and a beacon.

South Street in Philadelphia, which once used to be a dynamic and vivid district with its cosmopolite structure, turned into an abandoned area in the late 1950s. Isaiah Zagar and his wife Julia had moved to this street following Zagar’s depression in 1969, when the street was full of wrecked houses. Mosaic art was a form of rehabilitation for Zagar during his hard days. He started to cover the walls of his house and even some areas on the street with mosaic, and the facades of many buildings on the street became living canvases for Zagar’s art. When the owner of the derelict house next to his studio, which was also applied mosaic art by Zagar, wanted to sell the house in 2002, Zagar strongly objected the idea. Thanks to the attempts of Zagar and a group of supportive local art lovers, the house was opened to the public visits as a museum by an organization called Philadelphia Magic Garden following the trials lasting over two years. After this development, Zagar felt more willing to continue to commit his art and energy to this museum and the city. He lived on the street for 50 years and created 200 mosaic works of art across the city, more than 70 of which are located on South Street. Today, Philadelphia is proud of this open air art gallery, and this exceptional public art environment is the symbol of the city. This paper aims to examine the original mosaic language created by Isaiah Zagar through material variety and methods used. It also presents Zagar’s story of moving to the Street and his unique expression shaped by his previous life experiences. Key Words: Mosaic, Philadelphia’s Magic Garden, Isaiah Zagar, Public Art, Outsider Art.
