'Coat Of Arms'

The city coat of arms of 'Bautzen/Бауцен' with its heraldic coloring blue/yellow and its iconic town wall with additional 'Україна/Ukraine' lettering.

Shortly after Russias invasion into Ukraine some right wing citizens of Bautzen destroyed and removed blue/yellow flags in the city. BUT the coat of arms colors of Bautzen and Upper Lusatia are blue and yellow.

'Herman P.'

Digital Collage, 2023

I took the lyrics of 'Roman P.' by Psychic TV and changed 'Roman' to 'Herman'

Lyrics:

Herman you are, Herman you be Herman in your history Herman in your victory Herman in your destiny

[Chorus:] Are you free, are you really free? Are you really, really, really, really, really free? Is it you or is it me? Or is it simply history? Are you free, are you really free? Are you really, really, really, really, really free? Is it you or is it me? Or is it simply jealousy?

...

Oh, oh Herman, oh Herman Herman P.

Exactly 30 years after the "Monumente sollen stehen oder nichts" series (featuring the tear down of Wieland Försters Monument of Germanys communist working class hero Ernst Thälmann) - it is time for a new series since a group of right wing activists is trying to re-errect a Monument of Otto von Bismarck at Mount Czorneboh near Bautzen.
