Exhibition
Evoking Reality: Constituting actuality in photography and video art
25 Nov 2018 – 10 Jun 2019
Mercedes-Benz Contemporary
Berlin, Germany
Free
Many exhibition photographs and films explore the boundaries between conventional photo-journalism and positions in contemporary art. They oscillate between pure documentation and technical alienation and also institutionally between photojournalistic contexts and museum exhibition spaces. The tour aims to illuminate this transfer with its different forms of reception and distribution. Even the recontextualization of the individual image within the many series shown in the exhibition seems to articulate scepticism--or even a relativity of one's own knowledge.
