Project description
The Fototeka is an exhibition space organised by students at the Chair of Photography. Over the course of the semester, an open space was created here in which photographic works by students from various degree programmes were displayed. The Fototeka stands for interdisciplinary exchange, for sharing photographic perspectives – and for the presence of images that might otherwise not have been shown.
In the summer semester of 2025, the exhibition is entitled ‘Making Mistakes’. It shows photos that do not have to be perfect to be relevant – the exuberant, the undecided, those that have fallen through the personal grid.
We want to talk about selection processes: Why do we consider certain photos to be flawed? And what aesthetic quality can be found in the supposed flaw?
The Fototeka will take part in the photo walk on Saturday, 12 July at 3 p.m. at Marienstraße 1.
