Entire City From: Despite the retrogressive features of individual buildings of the Ming and Ch'ing dynasties, ive have in the imperial palaces of Peking a luperb example of planning on the grandest icale, showing the aptitude of the Chinese for xmceiving and executing a design of colossal jroportions. The hundreds of audience halls and ipartments within the Forbidden City, a walled inclosure measuring about 3,350 feet (1,020 neters) by 2,490 feet (760 meters), are mainly fractures of the late Ming and the Ch'ing lynasties. The entire area was conceived as a ingle architectural unit, with one main axis lominating the Forbidden City and the entire mperial City surrounding it.Is it possible to create an entire city from the houses in which one has lived throughout one's life - a home city in the most literal sense? This is exactly what the contemporary Danish artist Morten Stręde (b. 1956) has done in his total installation Homecity. Comprising 200 computer drawings, seven sculptures, four animated films and a model city, the work has been underway for a decade.
