As part of their training, aspiring photographers of the Ostkreuzschule für Fotografie meet first-year students of acting, directing, and puppetry of the HfS Ernst Busch to explore the question: How is an artistic portrait created?
Together, they engage in the process of getting to know one another, testing the tension between authenticity and staging. Following a successful first collaboration and exhibition in 2025, 35 unique and diverse portrait photos will once again be on display in the foyer of the HfS Ernst Busch this year.
With works by:
Klara Smiechowska, Felix Jung, Nina Dörner, Leon Gnannt, Simeon David Radig, Lena Nyfeler, Florian Janowitz, Leonard Tuschl, Anna-Lena Berger, Finn Weidmann, Katja Baboshkina, Emma Leandri, Helena Hamann, Alejandro Soto, Eve Kirfel, Ben Schünemann, Marvin Laskus, Duy Phat Nguyen, Jule Hackmann, Jana Abel, Lorenz Burzlaff, Rebekka Eversmann, Jacopo Foglietti, Clara Krien, Niklas von der Linde, Pedro Leiva, Raphael Zöller, Simon Lambert
