The display is divided into thematic groups. Consequently, for example, Axel Hütte, Sebastião Salgado and Sonja Braas present untouched nature far from civilisation, with images that reveal to the viewer the beauty and mysticism of natural landscapes.
John Davies, Jürgen Nefzger, Simon Norfolk and Joachim Brohm deal with changes to the landscape that have been caused by humanity.
Paul Almasy, Gunnar Smoliansky and Gerd Danigel present examples of how human beings adapt to country or urban settings, while Mike Brodie shows young “hobos” who travel on freight trains, deliberately avoiding adapting to anything.
