The city of Berlin found itself in flux after the Berlin Wall fell in 1989, caught between past and future. The city was defined by political upheaval and a housing shortage, but the 1990s were also the time when a new and confident generation flourished, rediscovering the city’s spaces. The exhibition illuminates the profound changes underway in the city as well as the contradictions and uncertainties which later paved the way for the turn of the millennium.
Photographers from former East Germany founded the photo agency OSTKREUZ during this tumultuous era, in 1990. Their works document the formative events following the fall of the Wall, revealing societal transformations and posing questions around identity. C/O Berlin will show roughly 200 photo works, including both iconic scenes and previously unseen archival material from the photographers.
Tickets: 12/6 Euro
