People Things, 2023
© Henry Schulz | | | | | | As part of the exhibition series "La jeune photographie allemande", this year, students of Ute Mahler and Marit Herrmann of the Ostkreuzschule Berlin are showing photographic works that address forms of togetherness and tackle the question of what connects people today. The exhibition entitled "With Each Other" will open at the Goethe-Institut Paris on 9 November 2023 at 6:30 p.m., during the international photography fair PARIS PHOTO. The Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation organises the exhibition series annually in cooperation with the Goethe-Institut Paris.
The exhibition comprises photographic positions exploring the tension between community and coexistence. Personal, often biographical works are set against series which provide insights into the longing for new environments and ways of life. Others address the boundaries and challenges of a divided everyday life through themes such as gender and migration. | | | | | | | | | Chiara Wettmann
Statelessness in Cote d‘Ivoire, 2023
© Chiara Wettmann | | | | | | In their works, the artists supervised by Ute Mahler and Marit Herrmann pick up fundamental phenomena that determine coexistence, such as statelessness, social role models or environmental changes. How does it affect people to live at the foot of an active volcano which could erupt at any time, or how does a couple live together on an otherwise uninhabited island? The photographic images also highlight personal themes such as one’s own adoption experience, transgenerational trauma and the disappearance of jobs and structures due to industrialisation. The wide-ranging aspects of togetherness bear witness to commonalities, basic needs and our concepts of "With Each Other" in all possible forms.
With the exhibition series "La jeune photographie allemande", the Deutsche Börse Photography Foundation and the Goethe-Institut Paris have been promoting young photographers at German universities since 2018, showing current trends in photography. Each year, students from a selected university or academy are invited to present their work in an exhibition at the Goethe-Institut Paris. After a presentation by Martin Liebscher’s photography class at the Hochschule für Gestaltung Offenbach (HfG) in 2018 and one by Heidi Specker’s Master’s students at the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst Leipzig (HGB) in 2019, Adam Broomberg’s and Oliver Chanarin’s photography class at the Hochschule für Bildende Künste Hamburg (HFBK) in 2021 and Beate Gütschow’s photography class at Kunsthochschule für Medien in Cologne in 2022 followed.
The participating artists are: Janick Entremont, Bimal Fabbri, Cecilia Gaeta, Max Korndörfer, Elliot Kreyenberg, Mirka Pflüger, Henry Schulz, Jonathan Scotti, Anika Spereiter, Chiara Wettmann | | | | | | | | | Max Korndörfer
