Exhibiting Photography – Insights into Three Curatorial Practices

What knowledge, methods and challenges characterize today’s photographic landscape?

Katrin Bauer and Marit Lena Herrmann from Germany and Ulrika Flink from Sweden meet to explore the questions driving the field of photography forward and the opportunities that open up in the encounter between different institutional and geographical contexts. They share a particular interest where questions of power, representation and political structures play a central role.

Drawing on their experiences from the photographic fields in Sweden, Germany and internationally, we discuss the curator’s role and responsibility, the audience’s relationship to images and photography’s potential to contribute to new ways of understanding our contemporary world.

The conversation is organized in collaboration with Goethe-Institut Sweden, and is part of CFF’s program series focusing on curators, where different working methods, current issues and international connections within the photographic field are explored. The conversation is moderated by Kristyna Müller, Director and Curator at CFF.

The talk will be held in English.

Free admission and open to all; please register here. The talk concludes with a mingle in the library.
