Panorama Issue Two 2008 5  “We asked ourselves what we could possibly do with so much young potential,” BPW trainee Theresa Hoell describes the origin of the idea for the sponsored running event. Together with two col- leagues she motivated her supervisors and nearly 70 co-trainees to run more than 50 laps per person in the Wiehltal stadium. The sponsors paid up to 200 euro per accomplished lap. Thus the BPW juniors were able to donate 13,550 euro to the Wiehl-based chari- table organisation „Malteser- und Johanniter-Hospizgruppe“. The director of the hospice, Gerlinde Tuzan, complimented the com- mitment of these young people who, quite contrary to the cliché, were not only thinking of themselves. BPW Youth Runs for Donation  It is the extreme panorama format, the special interplay of attention to detail and abstraction, and the mass of people that make Andreas Gur- sky‘s photos so impressive. The illustrated book of the current work period (including fascinat- ing Formel-1 images) thus is simply named “Andreas Gursky”.
