Chris Noltekuhlmann

An intimate portrait project of Berlin's iconic club culture

Berlin Night After Glow is Chris Noltekuhlmann’s tribute to the beating heart of Berlin nightlife. Over two years, Noltekuhlmann photographed dancers, DJs, artists, and clubbers fresh from long nights of techno-fueled escapism, capturing the raw, unfiltered spirit of a scene where personal freedom, identity, and self-expression converge.

From fetish looks to avant-garde streetwear, the portraits reveal a culture where fashion becomes political and personal, and where individuality thrives beyond mainstream norms.
Set against Berlin’s legacy as a city of creative freedom, this book is both a celebration and a cultural document — a testament to dancing as ritual, resistance, and release.

Featuring over 200 portraits alongside essays and interviews by Cassidy George, Berlin Night After Glow offers a deep dive into the city’s club culture, exploring its emotional, political, and transformative power.
