About

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.

Mustafah Abdulaziz, Pieter Hugo, Richard Mosse, Guy Tillim
