"Pain of East - if we insist on making a literal translation of the word and concept Ostalgia - was born in 1989, after the fall of the Berlin Wall. In former comunist countries, the buildings were designed and built as an expression of triumph while excessive public space and its correspondent small private spaces show a will of control over individuals’ public and even private life."
