Bambule has been part of
Karoviertel for many years. The
community was dissolved in late 2002 after policital forces had shifted
and the Hamburg city government decided that Bambule could not longer
exist. Police was called in and
the neighborhood revolted. Up to this
day, even though Bambule is effectively gone for now, its spirit remains
a dominant and influential part of urban culture in this part of town.
The 20 images shown here try to capture this "Bambule spirit".
