For over 25 years, Stefanie Bürkle has photographed both the city and its replicas, exploring how Venice becomes a projection for spatial desire. Venice exists not only as a place but as a circulating image—reproduced endlessly, mirrored across the globe, and embedded in cultural memory. For over 25 years, Stefanie Bürkle has photographed both the city and its replicas, exploring how Venice becomes a projection for spatial desire. Venice unfolds not as a single city but as a network of imaginations—reflected in fragments, fictions, and facades. This volume brings together analog and digital photographs from her long-term archive, accompanied by texts by Kristina Lovaas. Additionally, there is a fold-out map of Bürkle's Imagination of Venice atlas. The publication is part of the artistic research project Imaginations of Venice, within CRC 1265 Re-Figuration of Spaces, Technische Universität Berlin.
