Missions in the Mission. Exhibition of a Project with the Guests of the Bahnhofsmission München
Munich central station, platform 11. Starbucks is luring at the corner, but help and advice for travelers and those in need can be found much rather next door. The train station mission Munich, the Bahnhofsmission München, has open doors 24/7.
I was lucky enough to do a wonderful project for the Bayerische Bahnhofsmissionen two years back with the Australian-German director Vanessa van Houten. – Now the Munich based artist Christiane Huber has been invited to do a photography project with the guests of the Bahnhofsmission München.
An open space, many excited guests of the mission, a truly wonderful support from the staff and the many different stories, that flooded together with the people straight in to our studio, made this project a great success for all people involved.
The exhibition can be seen on the National Day of the Train Station Missions, Saturday, 20th of April 2013, Munich Central Station, Platform 11.
I was at that station about 15 years ago – despite the situation why I was there at that moment I liked it a lot! Wish I had time to ‘jump’ to the Munich and see that exhibition…
Hey Irena,
the exhibition was a great success, guests and travelers loved it a lot, many encounters, many great talks. Now I’m very tired, very happy and very content.
Yes, it is a shame we can not teleport our Internet friends from time to time for events or simply a cup of coffee! When I was a teenager, I had a pen-friend, and that felt similar!
You really have been passing through this station?? So perhaps we met before, walking past each other, who knows!
I’m planning to work tomorrow a bit on uploading images – so tomorrow or some time next week you should see some of this station you know!
