Many cultural projects like yours have problems with censorship and other obstacles. We want to leave all the naffness behind and deep dive towards the less lid ground levels into the unbekannte. We came together as we expected more from all this, and splashing around on the surface of a cum ocean just wasn’t enough.

Those who met him know how much positive energy Karl spreads.Īnd whoever saw his projects including Klub VERBOTEN knows that he is much more than an artist or event organiser. We introduce him to you today so that you cannot claim afterwards you did not know. Karl Verboten, founder of KLUB VERBOTEN, is such a silent prophet.
