Photographic narratives
The young participants are invited to see Berlin through different eyes in this exciting new workshop! In small groups and under the guidance of a photographer and a dramaturg, they roam the streets with their cameras and photograph the city in unexpected, unusual and surprising ways. Which stories want to be told, which scenes catch the eye and are worth capturing on camera?

Based on black and white photography, unconventional themes and perspectives are played with (e.g. hip shots, paparazzi, snapshots) and a very unique photographic language is developed. To explore the graphic and dramatic qualities of black and white photography, participants will be inspired by appropriate contemporary approaches. These include, for example, unorthodox city photographers such as Weegee, Diana Arbus or Vivian Maier. In the end, everyone created their own ‘grungy’ report in 2023!
