Alles Allen

“Alles Allen” is an art-in-architecture project that expands the question of ownership to include issues of resources, preservation, and reuse. As part of the construction of the new building and the relocation of the Gustav-Heinemann High School in Berlin-Marienfelde (2022–2025), the Alles Allen team worked together with the students to explore what climate justice means, what role their own resource consumption plays in everyday life, what items could be repurposed or reused, and which photos, drawings, and stories could be “recycled.” In close collaboration with “Mitkunstzentrale” and the “Haus der Materialisierung”—a production facility for climate-friendly resource use in Berlin—used carpentry boards, hardboard, and aluminum sheets were collected and prepared so that they could be further  processed using milling, screen printing, and digital printing. From these materials, images, and stories, two pictorial friezes were created that frame the foyer of the new school.
Through the illustrated panels and photographs, the book not only recounts the collaborative creation of the friezes but also raises questions about the possibilities of reusing resources and the responsibility of artists in the context of public projects. *Alles Allen* connects the question of personal ownership and the associated social obligations with that of resource justice.
The e-book is also available separately, without the print publication, at eeclectic.de.
