As part of their personal research, Namik Mackic and Eliyahu Keller, two students from the HMUI Berlin Portal traveled and documented two sites in former East Berlin: the Vietnamese Dong-Xuan Market in Lichtenberg – a port of call for Vietnamese and other immigrants who here make their livelihoods, and the late housing complex around Helene-Weigel-Platz in Marzahn – a quarter characterised by late socialist experiments in modernist urban layout at a grand scale.
