The chief editor of the reknowned German architecture and urban planning magazine <em>Bauwelt</em>, Felix Zwoch, found the city as exciting as we did.<br />
Together we could realize an interesting compilation:</p>
<p><strong>Why Baku?</strong><br />
<strong>Six young authors portray Baku,<br />
the wild, beautiful city by the<br />
Caspian Sea that has been elected<br />
this year’s cultural capital<br />
of the Islamic world.<br />
Baku has always entertained a<br />
difficult relationship to Azerbaijan,<br />
a country that has changed<br />
its language and script four<br />
times during the 20th century.</strong></p>
<p>.. got you interested?</p>
<p>English speakers can read the articles <a href="http://www.bauwelt.de/baku-en/?source=bauwelt.de"><strong>here</strong><br />

<p class="MsoNormal">Nachdem das ASA-Projekt „Describing urban changes in Baku [2008]“ für unsere Vorgänger Oriana Kramer und Sebastian Burger so erfolgreich verlief und die Resultate unter anderem in einigen Ausstellungen und in ihren Abschlussarbeiten einflossen, sollte es ein Nachfolgeprojekt unter gleichen Namen geben – aber unter etwas anderen Aspekten.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Das diesjährige Team besteht aus dem Studenten der Stadtplanung Michael Kraus (ISR, TU Berlin) und dem <a href="http://designarmada.de/" target="_blank">Fotografen Jens Kramer</a>. Seit Juni 2009 sind wir nun in Baku aktiv.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;">
<div id="attachment_661" class="wp-caption alignnone" style="width: 471px"><img class="size-full wp-image-661  " title="Teamfoto Baku 2009" src="http://urbanchange.wenedeux.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/09/teamfoto-asa.jpg" alt="Michael Kraus (l.) und Jens Kramer (r.) auf dem Dach des Landmark mit Blick auf Baku" width="461" height="322" /><p class="wp-caption-text">-- Michael Kraus (l.) und Jens Kramer (r.) auf dem Dach des Landmark, Baku --</p></div>
<p class="MsoNormal">
<p class="MsoNormal">Unser Ziel ist es einerseits einen auf Foto und Video basierenden Überblick über die städtebauliche Entwicklungsphasen Bakus zu geben und andererseits die spannungsträchtige Thematik mit Emotionen der Bewohner Bakus zu untermalen. Dabei wollen wir durch Interviews vor allem ihre Gedanken und Empfindungen in dieser von städtebaulichen Wandel und Brüchen geprägten Stadt einfangen.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Die Ergebnisse des Projekts möchten wir in verschiedenen Medien präsentieren. Derzeit denken wir über eine interaktive Onlinepräsentation nach, aber auch multimediale Ausstellungen (Fotografien auf Paper, Film auf Monitor) und eine Publikation in Buchform können wir uns vorstellen.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Einige fotografische Arbeitsproben der vergangenen Projektwochen werden wir hier in den kommenden Tagen präsentieren. Also dran bleiben!</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">.</p>

<p>goes in high season twice in off season once a week (thursday in my case): Thursday 19:15 h departure in Tehran, Arrival in Istanbul Sunday 23:15 h with about 8 h delay, cost with the first 1,5 days food (in Iran): 75 Euro. Since the train stops quite often quite long, you can easily feed you through the &#8220;buffet&#8221; markets of the stations..</p>
<p>fährt in der Hochsaison zwei- in der Nebensaison einmal. Bei mir: vergangenen Donnerstag 19:15 in Teheran ab, Sonntag um 23 Uhr mit 8 h Verspätung in Istanbul an. Letzte Fähre verpasst, auf der asiatischen Seite im Bahnhof 5 h auf die erste Fähre nach &#8220;Europa&#8221; gewartet, ansonsten empfehlenswert!</p>

<p>It took precisely 24 h from Baku trainstation to arrive in Tehran. A real nice and recommandable night train (leaves daily except for Monday at 23.55h arrives in Astara at 9.30 and costs 5 Euro for 2 men cabin) and a usual bus connection from the Iranian Border (this time I wasn´t even asked if I carry porno stuff or so) to its Capital (it took 13 instead of 9 hours because I got the one rainy day out of 365 days of the year ;-)</p>
<p>From Tehran I will take the Trans-Asia-Express (like the Transsiberian Railway but south of it) to Istanbul, to spend some time over there and take the last Train from Istanbul to Frankfurt which we already took on our way to Baku.</p>
<p>So with these last unsorted pictures I want to say goodbye to Azerbaijan:</p>

<p>Gerade schreibe ich schon aus Teheran - der Nachzug von Baku zur Astara, der Grenzstadt war herrlich (5 Euro Ticketpreis, Reservierung inkl. für ein ordentliches Bett im &#8220;luxus&#8221; Abteil in dem uralten Zug), die Busreise nach Teheran solala, wegen Regen dauerte es 13 statt 9 Stunden - es regnet so gut wie nie.</p>
<p>Am Donnerstag gehts auf dem Landweg weiter nach Istanbul, dann nach Frankfurt.</p>
<p>Nach bis dato mehr zynischen oder anderweitig Aserbaidschan eher in Mißkredit bringenden Posts als freundlichen nun nochmal ein letzter Ausgleich:</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The next will be my last week in Baku.<br />
Next Monday I take the train to Tehran. Then Istanbul. Budapest and finally Frankfurt<br />
I will have spend 3,5 monts in Baku with a quite dense time and different experiences.<br />
Definitely worth it, that can already be said even without a distant look.</p>
<p>Meine letzte Woche in Baku bricht an - Montag, den 3.11. werde ich mich per Zug nach Teheran aufmachen, um dann wieder über Istanbul und Budapest nach Frankfurt zu fahren. Same precedure as 3,5 Monate vorher - auch ohne Distanz kann ich sagen, dass sich diese dichte Zeit auf jeden Fall gelohnt hat. Ich habe viele verschiedene Erfahrungen hier in Baku gemacht</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>today the people made me laugh a lot:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-552" title="img_9541" src="http://urbanchange.wenedeux.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/10/img_9541.jpg" alt="" width="500" height="333" /></p>
<p>I was sitting in front of the main metro station &#8220;28th may&#8221; on one of those stones as u can see. I sat in a raw with all these sunflower seed-seller having the stuff they sell in front of them. As I had my camera gadgets in front of me - especially the tripod - people came by and asked what kind of a machine this is supposed to be and what I &#8220;sell&#8221;. As soon as there are two or three, you easily have a whole bunch of people admiring you.  Instead of a stupid tourist waiting for somebody I&#8217;ve turned to be the entertainer, something that typically is happening here in Azerbaijan (-:</p>
<p>Da sitz ich vor der 28. Mai Metre, DER METRO schlechthin, warte auf einen Kumpel, sitze auf solch einem Steinpoller, wie rechts und links von mir die Sonnenblumenkern-Verkäufer &amp; Co. Ihre &#8220;Mini-Verkaufsstände&#8221; vor sich, bilden wir so eine schöne Kette vor der Metro. Dieses Schema &#8220;da hockt einer, der muss was zum Verkauf anbieten&#8221; ließ die Leute gucken, als säße ich nackt dort. Als dann einige näher kamen, entwickelte sich ein kleines Schauspiel: binnen Sekunden standen mindestens 15 Leute um mich und fragten, was das wunderliche Stativ (mit blauer Pet-Flaschen-Verschluß-Käppi oben drauf) sei und was ich also anböte. Hihi, dafür liebe ich es wieder hier zu sein. Aus dem nichts heraus zu entert</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Einer der wirklich originären Künstler in Baku muß Niyaz sein. Dank eines Zufalls wurde ich mit zu einer Visite in seiner privaten Wohnung eingeladen. Siehe Bilder - ist diese über und über mit Bildern gespickt. Es ist schon so ein Abenteuer, auf seinem Bett zu sitzen und die aktuellen Werke vorgeführt zu bekommen. Da das Malen für ihn eine Art Autotherapie ist - aus seiner Drogenvergangenheit macht er kein Hehl - möchte der die Bilder schnell verkaufen und hat letztlich auch einen recht hohen durchsatz. Gott sei dank, sagt er, kann er (und seine Frau, die in intensiven Phasen in die Wohnung ihrer Mutter flüchten muß) vom Malen leben. Er war in Aachen und Berlin ausgestellt und hat z.Z. 20 Werke in Baku ausgestellt. (Niyazi Str. 41).</p>
<p>Wer gerne bei ihm vorbeischauen möchte - einfach mailen, ich teile die Handynummer mit.  One of the defnitely original painters of Baku must be Niyaz whose flat I visit by chance. Together with some friends I sit on his bed and we are shown several paintings. This 41 years old guy went through some tough drug experiences and cures. Now his obsession and autocure is painting and due to the fact that he can sell them he has quite a high output. Actually he´s not so much interested in being exhibited and stuff. It´s really about painting for him - that is what I like. Unfortunately I can´t understand a word of his Russian, but what my friend translate plus his mimics: I got a quite good impression of this artist.  If you like oil on canvas go see him, I volunteerly transfer his mobile numer on email request. Not as nice as visiting his flat in Xatai/Baku is the galley, but still 25 paintings are to seen by: Nizami Küc. 41.</p><div class="ngg-galleryoverview" id="ngg-gallery-23"><div class="slideshowlink"><a class="slideshowlink" href="/feed/?show=slide">[Show as slideshow]</a></div><div id="ngg-image-362" class="ngg-gallery-thumbnail-box ">
