MADE REALITIES
Photographs by Thomas Demand, Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Andreas Gursky and Jeff Wall

Showcasing the work of Thomas Demand, Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Andreas Gursky, and Jeff Wall, the exhibition presents four photographers whose images skilfully interrogate the possibilities and limitations of their chosen medium. Working with both analogue and digital technologies, the four artists not only formulate wholly distinct ways of seeing reality but analyse human perception itself. Their subjects range from fleeting everyday scenes to mysterious events and re-enacted historical happenings. What these images all share is the artists’ intent to meld the documentary – traditionally photography’s cardinal virtue – with the fictional. Without losing the connection to something that once existed, they construct glimpses of worlds that are as convincing as they are disconcerting.

Podcast MADE REALITIES

Presenting hidden cultural venues in Münsterland and getting to know the people who do everything for art and culture in the region - that's the idea behind the podcast "Mission Weißer Flamingo" by Münstlerland e.V..
Producer Anna-Ida Almus, an FSJ student at the Münsterland Cultural Office, travels through the region to see what is going on in front of, but above all behind the scenes of the cultural institutions.
She talks to cultural workers, artists and the creative minds of Münsterland,  including our director Dr. Corinna Otto and the curator of the MADE REALITIES exhibition, Olesja Nein.
