Last Stopp Border – Station „Friedrichstraße“ in Berlin, 1986
During summer 1986, the student Michael Magercorn from West Berlin took more than 100 photos of the undergroundstation “Friedrichstraße”. These pictures show the common activities on this station, which was the border between West Berlin and East Berlin. It was forbidden to take pictures, so he hid his camera in a cigarette box. 24 years later, Magercord published his pictures for the first time in his illustrated book “Endstation Grenze”. On this evening, he will present his book and will show some pictures, which never have been published before. The author will describe how he manages it to take the pictures unter the bis pressure of this illegal act.
