Renate Zeun | betroffen

About this Event

betroffen brings together vintage prints from Renate Zeun’s eponymous photographic series, produced in the first half of the 1980s, in which the East German artist turns the camera on herself. Created within a visual culture that long resisted the circulation of aged, ill, or damaged bodies, the work insists on visibility at a moment when such images were only just becoming permissible in the GDR.
