Description

Extended until April 9, 2018!

The tattered passport photo carried along in a wallet, the leafing through grandmother's photo album or orchestrated everyday snapshots with monotonous parades of universal poses and subjects – we get a glimpse of strangers' personal histories and recognise ourselves at the same time. Entirely individual and biographical, these moments are at the same time often captured in a highly ritualised and formulaic visualisation. It is this very ambivalence and strange beauty, along with a trace of voyeuristic curiosity and a great deal of humour, that contribute to the enormous appeal of private photographs and albums.
