Description: The world in the twenty-first century is characterized by constantly accelerating processes of change; mankind is currently undergoing an enormous phase of upheaval. Digitalization, climate change, waves of migration, population explosion, and globalization demand new solutions and ways of thinking. Under the motto "Breaking Point: Searching for Change," the seventh Triennial of Photography Hamburg takes up this debate. What answers can artists contribute to the discussion? What are the tasks of photography? The works collected in this book as well as the texts by the authors and museum curators have taken up these challenges and reflect on the subject of the "breaking point" in a manner that is highly complex, imaginative, and inspiring. Exhibition: Triennial of Photography Hamburg, Germany (07.-09.2018).
Notes: Published in conjunction with the 7th Triennale der Photographie, Hamburg, Germany, June 2018- September 2018.
