DescriptionDear Joanna Warsza,

here attached you find drawings to your project. I brought the 3d-model of the BoG building in correspondence with two other architectural models of different significance: Ceausescu's House of the Republic in Bucharest as megalomaniac statement of a dictator and Schloss Plueschow, a landgrave's stately home in the German region Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
The former Ministry of Transportation and Automobile Roads of Georgia is in this way arranged to an impossible architectonic context, raising question from a formal coherence and iconographic significance to eventually political connotations.

With best regards,
Josef Dabernig
