Conversation with the Artist Wendy Ewald

Program Accompanying the Exhibition “This Place” (with Video Recording; in English)

The inside-out@thisplace series explores the process of creating the collective photography exhibition and presents the respective perspectives of the photographers involved. It is about the view from outside and within, about narratives, about familiar pictorial worlds and the courage to question them.

Wendy Ewald has been working with children, families, and teachers for 50 years and encourages them to reach for the camera to record themselves and their environment and to articulate their dreams and ideas. Thus the work This is where I live explores 14 places from different angles. The reversed view creates a new polyphonic kind of narrative.
