The Whitechapel populates a disparate collection of East London venues as part of ongoing art project The Street; since March, artists and curators have been let loose around Wentworth Street, famous for its Petticoat Lane Market. One of the most interesting of the bunch is German artist Bernd Krauss, who uses the vantage point of the roof terrace on Denning Point tower block to film the hubbub of East End life. He then transmits footage to TV monitors in the Shop — The Street’s HQ — below. Krauss' urban explorations also take him to St Boniface Church, a German-speaking Catholic centre nearby. Drop by the Shop to check out his discoveries.
