How do images make social and political realities tangible? What kind of knowledge do they convey? And how do they actively participate in shaping the realities they depict? The exhibition presents film and photographic works that employ documentary strategies to probe the limits of the visible. The artists reflect on war and exile, the persistence of history in the present, systems of order and media events, struggles for visibility, and moments of powerlessness and solidarity. By interweaving their own images with archival and media material, as well as references to film history, they create multilayered narratives.
With works by Maryam Jafri and Pınar Öğrenci/Nuri Musluoğlu and diploma presentations by Pooya Sedighi Mournani and Merlin Rainer
During the opening, photos will be taken for documentation purposes and the GfZK’s communication channels.
