Berlin + Wien – All about the Book
Huh! It has been quite hectic getting this new baby ready for print in the last couple of weeks and YES we are in happy anticipation that everything will be in time and fresh out of the printery for this week’s opening in Berlin! Hurray! But what is this all about?
Well, it is an inspiring book about fancy summer activities.
It’s a book about life qualitiy in the two lovely cities Berlin and Vienna.
There is a 4,5 page super duper essay by the one and only Andrea Diener!
As well as some lovely philosophical lines from Nick Turpin who describes the essence of our photographic approach much better than we could do.
And of course there are 46 beautifully taken and carefully chosen photos inside! Brought to you directly from the producers!
It’s an outstanding guide on how to exercise in public…
…or to get your traffic problems solved with or without public transport.
It is definitly a PARTY HARD book!
..with lots of fashionable inspiration.
Of course, we have some urban gardening as well…
…and after all it is simply a book about the basic needs of human kind!
There will be a limited edition of numbered 100 copies only, available at the exhibitions in Berlin and Vienna for the price of € 20.
You may also order it on the web. I’ll put up an order page soon.

Exhibitions 2013
I’m looking forward to some exhibition dates in the first half of 2013. The first one will be a group show „Der Raum dazwischen“ (the space inbetween) opening at Jan, 25th, at Kugelbahn Wedding. All I know is that there will be pictures of beds and portraits, every photographer is represented with just two photographs. As it is organized by the lovely Hanna Goldstein and Katja Klemm who are also responsible for the KLEISTER events, I think we can expect a stunning show and a nice opening party.
At Feb. 8th there will be the opening for a one month solo exhibition at playing with eels Gallery in Berlin Kreuzberg with my new street portrait series NEW YORKERS. I’m currenty working on the prints and I’m very enthusiastic about them.
One month later, on the 1st of March, my friend and Seconds2Real mate Kay von Aspern and I will open a joint exhibition with street photography from Berlin and Vienna at Burjuar which is located at the Neue Schule Für Fotografie in Berlin Mitte. We are planning to publish a catalogue along with the exhibition that will also be shown in Vienna just one month later.
Also, there are plans for a first solo exhibition of my NACHT series and another solo one that will be titled „Berlin Trilogy“ combining extracts from ALEX, NACHT and other Berlin work. Those dates are not finally confirmed but if we are lucky they will be also running in the first half of 2013.
Of course all details about all events will be posted here.
Stay tuned + happy new year!
