Bringing the city’s history to life
Internationally renowned photographer Michael Wesely captures time and life in his photographs. In Doubleday, he explores the archaeological dimensions of photography by superimposing his own photographs precisely over historical views of nineteenth and twentieth century buildings in Berlin. This allows him to leap from the past to the present: Nineteenth century flaneurs on Alexanderplatz encounter today’s tourists, ruins become visible beneath the reconstructed copies of the buildings, and a park appears in place of Monbijou Palace.
MICHAEL WESELY (*1963) is a master of long exposure photography. His precise use of this photographic technique has made him world-famous. His works are represented in international exhibitions and collections. He lives and works in Berlin.

Das Motiv zeigt - palimpsest-ähnlich - die Situation am legendären Café Kranzler auf dem Kurfürstendamm damals und heute. Der Fotodruck kondensiert die Geschichte dieses ikonischen Straßenabschnittes mit Perspektive auf das bauliche Ensemble im Hintergrund in einem einzigen, spannungsreichen Bild.
