On Monday, March 23, Deutsches Haus at NYU sent out a call for images, asking our friends and followers to submit the views from their windows that they would be gazing at for the duration of the social distancing period brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. While many of us teleworked from New York, Germany, Austria, Switzerland, and all across the globe, the views from our windows at home became our primary connection to the world. Please join us in traveling virtually: looking through windows across the globe and sharing personal views that bring us together just at a time when we are kept apart.
We hope you enjoy our virtual exhibition project "What I See From My Window."
Throughout the duration of this project (which has now ended), we shared seven images each Monday on Instagram and have since presented these images in a real life exhibition at Deutsches Haus at NYU, putting faces to the views we have become familiar with.
