The Last News, 2002
Reynold Reynolds & Christoph Draeger

“The Last News” reflects upon the personal and collective fears and urge of the media to broadcast the apocalypse.

August 11 the lecture of Maria Godovannaya “The Last News by 
Christoph Draeger and Reynold Reynolds” will take place (in Russian).
