Bilderstürmer

Alles begann mit einem Relikt aus dem letzten Weltkrieg.

(It all started with a relic
from the last world war.)

We ended up with a typewriter from Berlin.

It used to belong to a journalist in Schöneberg.

She was banned by
the Third Reich.

For her defense of Democracy and Intellectualism.

Her name was Helene.

We decided to continue her work.

“The only way to deal with an unfree world is to become so absolutely free that your very existence is an act of rebellion.”

Albert Camus
(1913-1960)

We are the new journalism for the bold and the brave.

We are Bilderstürmer.

Bold. Brave.

We are the publication for builders, changers, doers, makers, and thinkers seeking clarity, depth, and a global perspective in a fragmented society. We practice intellectual curiosity, thoughtful dialogue, and big-picture long-term thinking in this age of chaos and noise. We value culture, democracy, literature, progress, science, the arts, and our shared future of a just world. If you believe and defend the same values, then join us.

Defying convention is in our DNA. Helene wouldn’t want it any other way. Therefore, we are proudly not and never will be on any “social” media platform. We simply do not need all that drama, noise, and toxicity.

Join the bold and the brave.

Bilderstürmer is the fearless and fiercely new independent publication for the bold and the brave through inspiring, intelligent, and meaningful storytelling. We honour those who defy convention for a better, gentler, safer, and smarter brave new world. We cover the intersection of people, philosophy, photography, places, poetry, and politics in defense of democracy, intellectualism, interculturism, internationalism, and the planet.
