ART ‘HYSTERIA’ – Cooper & Gorfer enchant visitors at FOTOGRAFISKA BERLIN with their collages of photography, embroidery, painting, and mythology
06.06.2025 •
With HYSTERIA, Fotografiska Berlin moves beyond the boundaries of a traditional photography exhibition to create an emotionally charged, sensory experience. The artist duo Cooper & Gorfer invite viewers into a richly layered universe where tenderness meets rage, myth interweaves with memory, and visual storytelling becomes a site of introspection, resistance, and transformation.
"Who are we when everything is shifting? What instincts do we bury to belong? With HYSTERIA, Cooper & Gorfer invite us into an emotional landscape where chaos and clarity, tenderness and rage, myth and memory coexist. HYSTERIA is both an exhibition and an invocation – a richly layered exploration of identity, transformation, and the enduring power of collective female experience.” – FOTOGRAFISKA

21.05.2025 •
Welcome to ToiletFotoPaperGrafiska – the hypervisual, surreal universe of TOILETPAPER at Fotografiska Berlin. From May 10th to August 31st, 2025, the museum transforms into a place that defies all logic, showcasing for the first time in Berlin an exhibition by the Italian artist duo Maurizio Cattelan and Pierpaolo Ferrari, who radically combine photography, design, and satire.
"It’s like being invited to the best party of your life, where everyone is wildly intoxicated and you’re the only sober person in the room," the artists themselves describe the experience. Founded in 2010 as a visually stunning magazine, TOILETPAPER has evolved into a global art project that has left a lasting impact on the contemporary art world. Their works break with the conventions of the censored, often sterile art world, relying on exaggerated, absurd, and provocative images that shock and fascinate.
ToiletFotoPaperGrafiska is an immersive collage where objects become artworks and images transform into installations. Visitors are invited to leave their minds at the door and instead follow their...

ART 'Tidings' - a longtime photography & art project by Daniel BENSON c/o MAKING PICTURES on GoSee
27.03.2025 •
Daniel Benson c/o MAKING PICTURES is a London-based photographer whose long-term project, 'Tidings,' offers a unique perspective on the lesser-known, industrial banks of the lower Thames. He has been working on this project on and off for eight years, exploring the river's secret and often forgotten corners. What began as a project born out of a mixture of boredom and curiosity has evolved into a visual journey exploring both the geographical and social significance of this region.
'I’ve been working on Tidings, on and off, for around eight years. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve visited the lower reaches of the Thames, how many times I’ve looped the fort at Tilbury or ignored the ‘no trespassing’ signs at Swanscombe. The project, if you can call it that, started out of two things, firstly boredom. In between commercial or editorial shoots, I wanted something or somewhere to shoot that required little effort, no real planning other than a gap in the diary. Secondly and crucially why Tilbury (and then later the entire lower river) piqued my interest was a comment by Owen...

ART 'Genesis' - A Visual Journey Through the Culture and Youth of the Guatemalan Highlands by Juan Brenner (Guest Editions)
14.03.2025 •
Genesis, the new photobook by photographer Juan Brenner, explores the people and culture of the Guatemalan Highlands. It is the result of five years of intensive work, during which Brenner documented the Highland area and the people living there in his home country. The book focuses on the region's youth culture. “Gen Z in the Highlands is the first generation to be 100% interconnected with the world. And that’s just happened in the last five years,” says the photographer.
The book is a comprehensive study of Highland society, delving into the history, nuances, and complexity of everyday life in this region, with its fascinating cities, villages, and indigenous markets. Brenner’s photography captures a territory in the midst of profound change, with a clear goal of documenting the "process of becoming." From the effects of the Spanish invasion of Guatemala in the 16th century to the legacy of colonial rule, Brenner uses cultural history as the foundation for his research and photography, while also casting an eye toward the future of the region.
