The team of "The Absence and Presence of the Berlin Wall/Die Ab- und Anwesenheit der Berliner Mauer" (@sarahalberti_leipzig @kay.bachmann @gewuerfel @alta_l_price ) was invited to a breakfast with a book presentation at the German House by Priya S. Nayar of @uniallianz on October 9, 2025 to mark German Unity Day. Thank you so much for the invitation, Priya! We truly enjoyed the fruitful conversation with you, Natalie Troeller of @germanyny_ , and the other attendees on 35 years of German reunification- and, of course, the stunning view! Thank you again for supporting the production of the book. @uniallianz is one of the sponsors.

Today marks the 36th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. The citizens of the GDR brought the regime to its knees with Monday demonstrations and mass exodus. On November 9, 1989, the Berlin Wall fell, and the borders were opened. On October 3, 1990, Germany was reunified. The physical division may be forgotten and invisible in many places. However, its lingering effects can still be felt. “The Absence and Presence of the Berlin Wall” / “Die Ab- und Anwesenheit der Berliner Mauer” examines the current state of German reunification through images and text. The project was published by @distanzverlag in August 2025 and is available in bookstores in Germany and Europe, on my website, and from the publisher. Design @kay.bachmann Publisher @distanzverlag Essay @sarahalberti_leipzig Foreword Christoph Tannert English translation @alta_l_price Printing @galleryprintberlin Hardcover, 350 pages, 61 color images, 148 b/w images, ISBN 978-3-95476-744-1 (DE) and 978-3-95476-732-8 (EN). “The Absence and Presence of the Berlin Wall” explores the topography along the country’s division and proposes a new way of thinking about the legacy of the wall: Würfel traveled the complete course of the former Berlin Wall, stopping every 2.8 kilometers—in a nod to the 28-year history of the Wall—to document the present-day state of affairs at the line of separation in Berlin and Brandenburg. Complementing the photographs, created specifically for this book project, of scenes where the city’s division was reality, the artist, urban planner, and sociologist gathered materials from the Stasi Records Archives, the East German secret police, and spoke to witnesses, including political prisoners, former guest workers, and representatives of German politics and culture, about their recollections. Würfel paints a multifaceted panorama and a portrait of a Germany whose division and reunification continue to profoundly shape the country. 0 km 2024 Archival pigment print 27.56 x 41.33 inches / 70 x 105 cm #wiedervereinigung #reunification #art #kunst #photography #fotografie #BerlinWall #UrbanArt #newbookalert #bookrecommendations📚❣️ #photographybook #fotobuch #history #bookreviews
