Sowas kann man hier halt immer noch machen

Publication, Summer 2022
160 x 240mm, 112 pages
Halle's subculture is undergoing a transformation as investors capitalize on the city's growth, replacing vacant spaces with new developments. The city, once a haven for offspaces and cultural initiatives, is now witnessing the displacement of longstanding projects by luxury apartments and innovation hubs. The changing cityscape, evolving from a post-GDR "ugly remnant" to an attractive hub for students and investors, has led to a reduction in non-commercial spaces. In this overview of Halle's subculture from 2016 to 2022, the publication serves as an update to Falko Gerlinghoff's earlier work, showcasing the adaptability of subculture to evolving conditions. Highlighting new contributors who have shaped Halle's underground scene, sowas kann man hier halt immer noch machen offers a glimpse into the city's cultural landscape, acknowledging the richness beyond the scope of this brief overview.
