Please note: Due to refurbishment the Museum für Fotografie will remain closed from Monday, 16 November, up to and including Wednesday, 2 December 2026. We apologize for any inconvenience.
The exhibition series “Seen by” is a co-curatorial lab project set up in the Museum für Fotografie as a way of devising innovative curatorial and artistic strategies in art photography.
The project will work with two strategies: either UdK staff select works for the exhibition, or curators prepare the exhibition with workshops, in which students develop a common concept. This not only establishes a new form of teaching, but also results in the productive intermeshing of the artistic work processes, which can subsequently take expression in very different forms of ‘publications’: ranging from exhibitions and performances to readings and lectures.
Partners: Universität der Künste Berlin (UdK)
