Month: May 2015

Blast from the past

After about one year, they finally started to remove my photos from the walls of the Asian-Afrika-Institut, where they were exhibited since May 2014. Because my latest efforts are not ready to be shown yet, I figured I might as well present the “Shanghai Civilized Park”-series here (again).

"Shanghai Civilized Park" is not a real park, but an awaard granted to a number of parks in Shanghai, which always proudly display this sign at the entrance. Promotion of "civilized" behaviour was part of the campaigns in the run-up to the Expo 2010, which was held in Shanghai.
