Society - No lesson learnt

 

Photograph: UPI / Landov / Barcroft Media

 

Given a multi-trillion dollar bailout (US and Europe) to rescue disgracefully failed banks with public funds from 2008 on, something that lets citizens suffer the consequences maybe for decades to come, in some countries to a life-threatening level, should make persons responsible walk humbly. But not to draw any lesson from this paragon of the devastating effects of unrestricted financial markets combined with human greed and instead to go back to business as usual is a moral, political and social disaster that will only lead to something even worse. Fatal!

NIKOLAIKIKI Christmas Charity Shopping

 

 

NIKOLAIKIKI is collecting money to give to charity this year again as usual. Buy any of the products in the NIKOLAIKIKIshop and 30% of the price will be donated for Christmas to the Berliner Obdachlosenhilfe, an organisation that looks after homeless people in Berlin. As always NIKOLAIKIKI is shipping worldwide.

 

By ordering a product before Christmas through the NIKOLAIKIKIshop you will do multiple good things:

 

In case of T-Shirts and Pants you will not only receive super comfy, top-quality organic cotton wear, the apparel is also produced the best possible way, GOTS standard guarantees fair & environmentally friendly production throughout the entire supply chain, including fair wages, industrial safety, no child labour, low carbon emissions, no toxics, sparing usage of water, pure organic materials and much more. If you want to see how it looks check the NIKOLAIKIKI documentary from the production in Izmir, Turkey, last year. Through buying organic and fair clothes you will contribute to a better society and a sound environment and you simply help workers in the production chain and their families to live a better life.

 

You may as well order environmentally friendly postcards or supreme fine art prints, for example my new series "Weinbergspark 2014" from this year as gorgeous premium photo prints. 

 

Second, 30% of the purchase price will go directly to charity, this year local again to the Berliner Obdachlosenhilfe, helping the neediest of us living on the streets of Berlin.

 

In the end shopping at NIKOLAIKIKI also means you will support a young passionate company based in Berlin Mitte to keep focussing on documentary photography and sustainable products in the future.

 

Thank you so much for your attention!

 

Happy pre-Christmas time and thoughtful shopping!

Society - 25 years fall of the wall

 

Impressions from 25 years fall of the wall anniversary. I've been to Bernauer Straße on the former death strip. In Berlin there were 8000 balloons along the former course of the wall, released the moment the wall came down 25 years ago ...

 

 

This wall came down, but there is a new wall that surrounds the EU and seals off against the rest of Europe and Africa in particular with hundreds and thousands of refugees dying in the Mediterranean on their deperate voyages hoping for a better world. The Polical Beauty organisation did a really great action which can be found here, http://www.politicalbeauty.de/mauerfall.html. They snitched the white wall remembrance crosses for the victims of GDR times, people that died trying to break away from the eastern socialist state, and brought them to the border of the EU to point out this way of blocking refugees out is a new human injustice that has to end.

 

Let's tear this wall down as well!

Photography - Series "Weinbergspark 2014"

 

This is a series I shot in October this year in the Weinbergspark, in the middle of my most favorite season for colours. The works are actually an evolution from a series in 2010.
