Festival Belluard Bollwerk International

Pop-up architecture

A tower stands in the middle of the tiny 50-metre-long Rue des Epouses in Fribourg. Given the narrowness of the street and the positioning of the installation, visitors have to make a choice: walk around it or through it? Those who go for the second option will find a staircase that takes them up to the level of the decorative sign hanging 4.6 metres above the street, which depicts a couple of lovebirds from a bygone era, their backs to the cathedral. Just enough time to take a quick selfie with the faithful wife and the model husband before heading back down and out on to the other side of the street that leads to Saint-Nicolas Cathedral.
