Christian Stemmler - Anfang/Beginning - Berlin 1994-99

The new IDEA book is ANFANG/BEGINNING: BERLIN 1994-99 by Christian Stemmler. Underage in the underground. Christian Stemmler left home at 17, dropped out of school, moved into a squat, found working a club and started taking photographs. This was the nineties and this was Berlin.

And that was near on three decades ago. The photographs of that scene have not been seen. Until now, in the age of sharing everything, he has made a book. A book that takes you back.

ANFANG/BEGINNING: BERLIN 1994-99 is a personal visual history of the creative playground East Berlin became after the fall of the Berlin Wall. An alternative lifestyle book, an interiors and exteriors book, a photo book that documents a great and largely lost freedom. In 2025, it looks like a liberation from phones, social media and Zoom calls. An expansion of time to experience and learn from going out, meeting people, dancing
