Co-curator with Peter Lindhorst

Online exhibition What if the Earth becomes uninhavitable

The exhibition highlights the value of interdisciplinary collaboration, bringing together artistic practices that directly consider and refer to scientific knowledge. Combining the photographic medium and other digital techniques, the artists develop possibilities to make the invisible visible, to clarify the abstract and to sharpen our consciousness. What if the Earth becomes uninhabitable presents a number of lens artists who, like scientists, explorers and researchers, use their creativity to make scientific data and findings more comprehensible; to visualize damage and past mistakes, which can turn out to be learnings for the future.

07.07. - 12.10.20, Photographic Museum of Humanity (PHmuseum)

Curator

Group exhibition Urgent Arts of Living

The arts can foster behavior change and engagement, because they move us on a visceral, more human level in a way that facts simply cannot. This exhibition, featuring work by Marie Lukasiewicz, Fábio Cunha and Ana Zibelnik, reclaims metaphors as valid figures in our photographic language with a great capacity to shift deep-rooted mental conceptions.

This exhibition was developed in the scope of Parallel – European Photo Based Platform

Exhibition [JOAN FONTCUBERTA| Photography: Crisis of History

Curated by Alison Nordström

Exhibition design by Ballmann Weber

Joan Fontcuberta, noted artist, curator and historian presented a new and surprising history of photography, featuring previously unknown works that expand our understanding of photography’s past and present. Photographs by Picasso, Dalí and Miró were featured alongside important commissions of Albert Renger-Patzsch, Man Ray, László Moholy-Nagy, Alexander Rodchenko and Walker Evans, and the recently re-discovered oeuvre of Ximo Berenguer who photographed the nightlife of Barcelona in the 1970’s before his tragic premature death. This was Fontcuberta’s first exhibition in Hamburg.
