LARRY SULTAN in: Blick in die Zeit – Alter und Altern im photographischen Porträt

The exhibition shows 18 positions and includes photographs from the beginning of the 20th century to the present day. Using the example of the portrait, photographers of different generations and origins approach the many facets of the phenomenon of "age and ageing" in serial projects. Above all, life means development and thus implies change and ageing. What is perceived as progress or regression depends on individual and social values. The images that find expression in art and photography are correspondingly diverse but are also supplemented by loans from national and international museums, galleries and estates.
