Description: Since the invention of photography, the family has been a constant subject of photographic observation, both in private photo albums and in artistic series. The group exhibition FA M I LY AFFAIRS ? Family in Contemporary Photography, conceived by Ingo Taubhorn, Curator of the Haus der Photographie, examines the cur-rent status of this traditional genre. A trans-continental selection of artistic projects from the last decade reveals both the diversity of photographic approaches and the heterogeneity of family models and complex dynamics. The catalog presents a wide variety of series and work groups and contextualizes the positions through comprehensive essays on various family themes in both photography and film, as well as within our society. 00Exhibition: Haus der Photographie, Deichtorhallen, Hamburg, Germany (01.04. - 18.07.2021).
