In the Dark of the Night

January 3, 2020

The group exhibition ‘Because the Night’ continues at the Fotomuseum Winterthur, Switzerland, until February 16, 2020.
To paint the town red and lose yourself in a dancing crowd; to leave ordinary life behind and indulge your desires for a few exhilarating hours: for many night-time revellers, bars and clubs are synonymous with pleasure, escapism and freedom. Fotomuseum Winterthur currently explores this theme with the group exhibition ‘Because the Night’, which continues at the Swiss venue until February 16, 2020.

Bárbara Wagner, Benjamin de Burca, Tobias Zielony and Georg Gatsas investigate the complex network of relationships, as well as the social values and prevalent political orientations that exist within this parallel, nocturnal world. Their images are placed in dialogue with the radically personal perspectives of Bieke Depoorter and Thembinkosi Hlatshwayo, whose work offers intimate insights into the processes by which the inner self negotiates its external environment.
