Vibe Overgaard: Towers of Dust

Towers of Dust is an image and text based publication about the development and structure of capitalist ideology in the Scandinavian industrial- and welfare city of Aalborg. Moving through the city’s 20th century modernization process, the artist examines the cultural aesthetics of production, machines, concrete panels and urban planning. The text outlines the historical heritage that lays a background for the many contradictions of contemporary welfare capitalism.
