The Kunsthalle Bremen is expanding its collection exhibition "Remix" with a selection of historical and contemporary photography. Works by Bernd and Hilla Becher, Candida Höfer, Richard Mosse, Sebastian Riemer, Ricarda Roggan, Thomas Ruff, August Sander, Taryn Simon, Thomas Struth, and Heinrich Zille are presented in four large exhibition rooms. The photographs include some new acquisitions from the Kunsthalle Bremen collection, some on long-term loan from the Ültzen Collection, and some on loan from the Lothar Schirmer Collection.
The exhibition draws attention to the traditional notion of photography as an objective image, a reliable documentation of reality, or even as evidence in the investigation of crimes. The selected photographs challenge these ideas in various ways, revealing photography as a medium in which truth and fiction can blur. Highly topical issues are also addressed, such as the digital deluge of images on the internet and the question of the credibility of photography in the age of AI.
