Winners of Capturing Movement

We did this great photo mission together with the amazing EyeEm community. The results?

  • about 8.000 pictures handed in
  • over 2.000 photographers from all around the world took part
  • a week of excitement and cheerfulness when spotting new cool shots

Of all these contributions we had to pick. It was really hard – but after long discussions, instant love declarations and serious fighting we agreed on the 24 pics of the final selection. These pictures

  • were exhibited on Saturday the 20th of June in Berlin
  • will get published in our newest publication called Capturing Movement

And then, out of these 24 outstanding images we had three prizes to award. There were three categories, and we are once again delighted to announce that

  1. Eric Youn (US) won the Best Picture category
  2. Constantin Schiller (Germany) won the Best Metaphor category
  3. Rachel Chua (Phillipines) won the Public Choice category, which was given out by the audience, both online via facebook and offline at the Capturing movement exhibition

The winners won their very own copy of the scroll Capturing Movement and will be the first to hold it in their hands when it is all set and published. Congratulations!! It will be a beautiful book and we are really happy to have had the opportunity to cooperate with EyeEm and their great community.

Our very first vernissage

This weekend was full of adventures.

On Friday we had a great Vernissage at the lovely Wettbureau in Wedding. After intense preparations at full speed during the last week and thanks to Lea’s magic, we opened our first ever exhibition at 7pm. We showed our first publications: some great images by Larry Yust, extracts from Simon Becker’s Eurylochus and a fascinating work-in-progress version of Wilma and Wolf by Luisa Stenzel. It turned out to be an evening full of summer atmosphere, a cheerful audience and the combination of art and scrolls. Thanks to everyone for coming and the great feedback you gave us.

This opening was followed today by something much more intimate – the first ever public reading of our children’s book Wilma and Wolf by Luisa Stenzel. And it was great fun. Accompanied by brezels, the much beloved Fruchtpapier and coffee for the older kids among us, the lively Esther read for us. It was a delight to see the joy and fascination of all the kids following Wilma and the Wolf on their way through the scroll.

We hope you enjoyed our events and see you soon!
