The most absurd belief is probably the belief in man’s reason as his defining characteristic. A group exhibition by the ParisBerlin fotogroup revolves around this theme.
Renko Recke-Morlon’s forays through city centres document how the belief in oneself, the individual, is becoming increasingly important. In a climate of constant self-optimisation, the better self is just a Botox injection away.
Torsten Schumann marvels at the scenes and objects found in everyday urban life in China. Can the paradoxes of contemporary life tell us more about what drives people?
In a typographic work, Andreas Trogisch visualises the many violent, bloody episodes in the Old Testament, which forms the basis of belief for the three major monotheistic religions.
Barbara Wolff observes the inhabitants of Berlin and New York in their rituals in search of a new spiritual centre, such as mass yoga in Times Square or the ‘consecrated’ sleeping place for the homeless.
Exhibition: 15.03. – 30.03.2025
