Christof Schlegel is working in the fields of architecture, urbanism and art.
Since 1992, works and projects have been on questions of urban representation, urban image politics and on the construction of the city image by various media. Several projects were done in cooperation with Almut Rink and with the Office for Cognitive Urbanism (Schlegel, Andreas Spiegl, Christian Teckert). These projects mainly deal with the influence of media on urban perception and identity. Schlegel developed several projects during long-term stays/residencies in Los Angeles/USA, Tokyo/Japan and Nanjing/China.
