Marking the 35th anniversary of the German-Polish Treaty on Good Neighbourship, the special exhibition “Ostgebiete / Ziemie Zachodnie” brings together renowned photographers from both countries in a visual dialogue on memory, identity, and transformation.

The artistic works of ten photographers from both countries reveal how traces of a process that remains visible and tangible to this day—marked by appropriation and farewell—have been inscribed into landscapes, architecture, and family narratives on both sides of the Oder River.

Featuring works by: Karolina Gembara, Annette Hauschild, Thomas Meyer, Katarzyna Mirczak, Filip Piotrowicz, Natalia Poniatowska, Linn Schröder, Ina Schoenenburg, Wojtek Sienkiewicz, Heinrich Völkel
