Before completion of the new site next to Stuttgart Airport, Stuttgart Messe was based for more than 50 years in the Killesberg suburb of Stuttgart. As nearby housing estates encroached on trade fair parking and roads, the old fair was closed down to make way for social housing for old aged pensioners and apartments.

the truth of the new is never on the news

sifting her own life out from the shards she’s piecing,
asking the clay all questions but her own.”
