Echo Chamber Germany – Photographic Perspectives the Rise of the Far Right: Guided tour with photographer Rafael Heygster
Echo Chamber Germany – Photographic Perspectives the Rise of the Far Right brings together the works of eight photographers that grapple with sites of right-wing violence, Germany’s culture of remembrance, and the visual strategies of right-wing figures, while also depicting examples of countermeasures centred in solidarity. Viewed collectively, these works provide a nuanced view of one of the most urgent and alarming political developments of our time.
