City of freedom, city of the future, city in transition.
The most berlin brand with the most berlin advertising campaign in the world presents an exhibition at the CLB and shows the last 12 years of Berlin from a unique perspective.
“Berlin is not a city at all, but Berlin merely provides the place, where a lot of people gather who don’t care about the place at all”, that’s how Heinrich Heine once described Berlin. And this description is still justified today. Berlin’s vibrancy is unmatched, and everywhere it smells of the future. “Do you have to be crazy to come to Berlin?” as another famous quote describes it? Or is Berlin simply a magnet for creatives and visionaries around the globe…?
The Berliner Morgenpost’s campaign documents current events, the city’s errors, confusions and curiosities, as well as important events.

Along this visual language, in an exciting round and together with our guests, we will talk about Berlin’s development, the constant change, the creative vibe and the charm that the capital radiates.
