Photography between Topography and Memory
The exhibition connects the observation of works and regional cultural history. It relies on the power of the photographic image, on lines, surfaces, and spatial effects that make the journey from the Upper Palatinate to distant image worlds comprehensible. Particularly in the context of the theme year Castles and Palaces in Amberg-Sulzbach, this photographic perspective gains additional depth.
