The publication accompanies the Danish artist Lars Mathisen's eponymous art project of two installations created for the 26th Sao Paulo Biennial in 2004. It is a thematic catalogue, that is, more than commentaries to Mathisen's work the essays also expand on the central theme of global imaginaries. As such the publication offers independent, associative and analytical portraits of contemporary urban life in a globalized world.
