Alle Katzen Grau @ B8
B8 – Bilderzeitung der Ostkreuzschule
Interview with Nico Baumgarten
“(…) People like Martin Parr won’t get a free copy of my book because I don’t like the entire idea of having these mega-gurus who decide what’s good and what’s not. They do not represent the self-publishing scene, but they still dominate it. I think we have to build up a new generation of publishers and stop kissing the asses of yesterday’s authority figures. (…)”
