A Fotomarathon is a photo adventure where participants create a photo series within 9 hours and follow the photo prompts received on the day of the competition. A Fotomarathon appeals to spontaneity, a spirit of discovery and urban exploration rather than to the ability to run fast. A few weeks after the Fotomarathon, all photo series be shown online in a collective 3-D exhibition. The event is part of a non profit Berlin based organisation and led by a team of volunteers.

Wie präsentiere ich einer/m Interessent*in, Kurator*in oder Galerist*in die Essenz meiner Arbeit? Ist die optimale Präsentationsform die Mappe, die Wand oder das Web? Wie ist das Zusammenspiel von Form und Inhalt?

Der erste Eindruck zählt, oder wie man in Amerika sagt: „You'll never get a second chance to make a first impression. “

Ziel ist es, die individuelle künstlerische Arbeit effektiv zu kommunizieren. Norbert Wiesneth wird anhand von Beispielen ausführlich den Prozess der Bildauswahl und die geeignete Form des Portfolios für den jeweiligen Anlass darstellen und Strategien für die Perfektionierung der Präsentation entwickeln. Am Ende des Kurses können mitgebrachte Portfolios der Teilnehmer*innen besprochen werden.

Guided tour through the exhibition „Lothar Wolleh Raum 3 - Atmospheres of Imagination“ and introduction into Lothar Wolleh´s photographic Oeuvre.

Hailed by Terry Southern as the "Poet of Radical Photography" Miron Zownir's photographic work has been exhibited in galleries and museums in several countries from 1981 on. His photos have been published in 6 photobooks and he was featured in many international anthologies. He took up photography in the late 70s during the hey-days of the punk-phenomenon in West- Berlin and London, delivering a tight portrayal of the movement and its peculiar attitude towards life in limbo between a utopian vision of anarchy and nihilistic self-destruction. After 15 years in the States (NYC, Los Angeles and Pittsburgh) he returned to Berlin. In 1995 he went for three month to Moscow to descend into the lower depth of Post-Communist society. From the early 2000’s on Zownir ventured for several photo excursions to Poland, Bulgaria, Romania, California, the Ukraine and Istanbul. He is also a filmmaker and writer of crime novels.
