The exhibition shows the spotlight-like effects of one hundred years of Bauhaus on photography. How do influences, references, interpretations in the photographic visual language and comparisons over the decades up to the present day of photography look like? Part of the exhibition are four recent photographs by Matthias Hoch, taken in Oscar Niemeyer’s French Communist Party Headquarters in Paris.
