On a hill of sand vortexes of air move, recalling whirlwinds. In the background is the Berlin high-rise of Allianz, the world’s largest insurance company. This company long ago expanded beyond insurance; it is now a financial concern that for example buys and resells banking houses. The sand turbulences point to the turbulences in the financial markets, which also led to a deep crisis in all of society.
