• OSTZEIT-exhibition in Cottbus

    Youth consecration on the countryside, punks and May parades in East Berlin, dance and nostalgia in Clärchens Ballhaus: The exhibition "OSTZEIT" evokes a country that no longer exists, even if its traces still surround many of us day per day.
    50 years after the construction of the Wall, the OSTKREUZ group exhibition is shown in Cottbus. Our photographers Ute Mahler, Werner Mahler and Harald Hauswald will hold an artist talk on 20 October.

  • We grieve for Arno Fischer

    You meant so much to all of us, as a mentor and as a friend.

  • Ute and Werner Mahler - „Mona Lisas“ now a book!

    Between city and countryside, between being a child and being a woman: for their project "Mona Lisas of the suburbs" Ute and Werner Mahler photographed girls in transition.  They have selected thirty of these portraits for a book that can now be ordered in our OSTKREUZ-Store.
