Pixelprojekt_Ruhrgebiet is a digital photography collection creating a regional memory, a project of independent photographers.
The Ruhrgebiet is a region with a unique photography scene. Among its highly regarded art and design schools in Essen, Dortmund, Bielefeld, Düsseldorf and Münster, as well as a rich concentration of museums throughout the region, photography in the Ruhrgebiet is playing an increasingly influential role. Photographers from the Ruhrgebiet and from outside the region have always been eager to visualize the contradictions and eccentricities of the region, both in their personal and commissioned work.
The exhibition ÜberTage shows a selection of 30 photographers from the archive of Pixelprojekt_Ruhrgebiet. The main theme of the exhibition is the transformation of a traditional coal and steel region into a modern metropolitan area.
We are very delighted to show our series Rheinhausen at the museum in Mülheim.
