360° walk-in panorama
Shanghai 360° is a detailed panoramic view of the Chinese metropolis created by renowned architectural photographer HG Esch. The walk-in installation is displayed in front Hamburg's Europa Passage. HG Esch's city-scape is reminiscent of the painted, true-to-life panoramas that were so popular in the 19th century. To achieve this high degree of realism, the panorama is composed of a total of sixty high-resolution photographs – of which twenty are placed side by side, and superimposed with two more images. All photographs were taken with a Leica S.
