The end of the GDR was not the end of its images. What perspectives do we choose to construct our view of a society whose inner realities still leave many questions unanswered? This book examines the final years of the GDR and the early post-reunification period. It brings together both well-known figures in photographic art and largely forgotten photographers – most of whom lived in the GDR – alongside perspectives from international photographers who captured the country from the outside. The images span documentary practices as well as artistic and staged imagery, and include hybrid forms like photo-film, while texts by renowned authors offer a multi-perspective view.
