“Radio Emigrek” Marily Stroux The photo journalist Marily Stroux has concerned herself with migration and refugees for years, and she also brings her photographs into play in the context of social and political movements. The exhibited pictures show two collaborators at Radio Emigrek. The station, which was founded in 1993, had existed for five years then, and was a part of the Open Channel in Hamburg. It positioned itself as an information channel and provided, apart from music, a public platform to exchange migrant themes and problems. Following the idea of an Open Channel, the group of radio activist with its twelve members created the programme independently or invited friends and interested people. Radio Emigrek was founded at a time when nationalist tendencies emerged in student organizations in Hamburg in the early 1990s. It also offered the possibility to bring one’s own themes into the public. The programmes were broadcast every Friday afternoon, following the official Greek news show. Photographer, lives in Hamburg. |
