«Der Schwund» poster and media diversity campaign design for «Hauptstadt», Bern.
The Swiss media crisis is threatening diversity. Advertising revenue is going to tech companies, editorial offices are cutting staff, and independent titles are disappearing. Due to mergers, newspapers often hardly differ in content anymore. This standardisation facilitates political influence and weakens critical discourse. Less media diversity means less control over power and threatens democracy. Therefore «Hauptstadt» – the independent online news media – organized a poster competition, exhibited at the Bern station square, along with an information and panel event at the Sous Soul club.
The exhibition on the station square runs from 26. January to 28. February 2026.
