About the Work
The Wall against Walls. The heaviest letter in history. The idea: On the 30th anniversary of the “Fall of the Berlin Wall”, the citizens of Berlin - supported by the Initiative Offene Gesellschaft" – sent a letter to Donald Trump, written on one of the last existing segments of the historical Berlin Wall. A message and a reminder to the American President that separating our society is never the answer. The White House rejected the letter. The American people did not. The “Wall against Walls” went on a 3 week journey to the southern border. Through the conservative heartland of the United States. Inspiring thousands of people on its way. The "Wall against Walls" found its final destination at the Mexican border. Where it hopefully inspires the next generation to take a stand against a world without walls. The results: Though having a media budget of 0 EUR, the media coverage was overwhelming. Over 150 mass media reports and over 2mio impressions. And countless tears of emotion among the American people.
