Scharf gestellt: Wassersport, Politik und Fotografie Öffentlicher und buchbarer Rundgang

Public Tour of the Special Exhibition “Full Speed Ahead! Photographic Perspectives on Water Sports and Politics”

Water sports are political. Both professional sports photos and personal snapshots show just how much water sports have been shaped by political systems and societal ideals since their inception. How is this reflected in photography?

Participants will gain insights into the exhibition and explore the interplay between the medium of photography and the staging of water sports. What aesthetic qualities do postcards from the Imperial era possess? How did the Nazis use photography and sports to spread their racist ideology about people and bodies? Can you tell from photos whether the photographer was from the East or the West?
