Brox+1 – Berlin Possibility: Rave in Ruins – Club Culture 1990 to 2000

The photo book 'Berlin Possibility' by Christian Brox captures Berlin in the utopian chaos of the 1990s, when the city's historic center—transformed by war into ruins and wastelands—became an unrestrained playground for a generation. Empty shops and basements turned into clubs, embodying the era’s raw creativity and free-spirited energy. Featuring around 300 mostly unpublished photos, the book offers a vivid glimpse into the squatting, art, and hedonism that birthed Berlin’s iconic club culture. Brox, one of the few photographers to document this scene, delivers “shots between intoxication and hangover,” evoking what Der Spiegel compares to early Wolfgang Tillmans: euphoria unspoiled, with only a hint of what’s to come.
