Add to basketNeuware -Seltene Einblicke in die Berliner Wagenburgen Kein Wasseranschluss, keine Heizung, aber bedingungslose Freiheit: So sieht der Alltag der 1990er Jahre in den Berliner Wagenburgen aus. Heute gibt es nur noch wenige dieser autonomen Siedlungen - verdrängt wurden die alternativen Lebenskonzepte durch die Gentrifizierung der Stadt. Ihre Bewohner\*innen lassen sich nur ungern ablichten. Ralf Marsault (geb. 1957 in Angers, Frankreich; lebt und arbeitet in Paris), der selbst Teil dieser Gemeinschaft war, ist dies gelungen. Er dokumentierte über zehn Jahre den Alltag und das Leben in der 'Kreuzdorf Wagenburg' in Berlin. Der Künstler zeigt in seinem Buch, wie ein Leben fernab von 'nine-to-five', von Eigenheim und Besitz ausgesehen hat. Attribute, die Berlin zu dem Sehnsuchtsort gemacht haben, der er heute ist. Der promovierte Kulturanthropologe Marsault thematisiert damit ein Stück der Stadtgeschichte, in der es nicht um Geld, Macht oder Ruhm geht, sondern um alternative Lebenskonzepte, aus denen wir heute wieder etwas lernen können. Den Text schrieb Héléna Bastais. Mit einem Vorwort von Élisabeth Lebovici. 128 pp. Französisch, Englisch, Deutsch.

Rare Glimpses of the Life inside Berlin's Trailer Encampments.
No running water, no heat, but boundless freedom: in the 1990s, that is the lived reality in Berlin's trailer encampments. Established by free-spirited individuals who refused to fit in, few of these autonomous settlements have survived the ravages of gentrification. The residents of the remaining encampments do not like to be photographed, but they made an exception for Ralf Marsault (b. Angers, 1957; lives and works in Paris), who was part of the community. For over a decade, he recorded the routines, the highs and lows of life at the “Kreuzdorf Wagenburg” in Berlin. In this book, the artist shows what a life looked like that contrasted sharply with the usual dream of a nine-to-five job, homeownership, and material prosperity—and that helped make Berlin the magnet that it still is. Marsault, who has a PhD in cultural anthropology, thus also highlights a strand in the city's history that is not about money, power, or fame—an alternative vision that can surely be an important source of inspiration for today's aspiring rebels.
With an essay by Héléna Bastais and a foreword by Élisabeth Lebovici.
