The second part of Utopia at Karlsplatz was an action in the underpass area that borders on the square. It involved the co-operation of juveniles. They made cut-outs of themselves. It was a metaphor for the bright shadows, which radiated people leave on the walls after a nuclear explosion. Everything was overshadowed by the fear of a nuclear war and by the Cold War between East and West. The overriding theme therefor was peace.
