Der Greif, Issue 17

Der Greif is a contemporary photography and literature magazine from Germany. Less a magazine and more an exhibition in printed form, each double-spread features images by different emerging and established photographers side by side, at times complementing and at others clashing with one another, along with poetry by writers from around the world.

Der Greif and Torbjørn Rødland put out an open call, titled "One Day Soon“.

The world is still out there. Our job is now to find our places in it. A way through it. Rødland wanted to see the medium of photography opened up and pushed forward through the rise of generative AI. Beyond a subjective recording of the world as well as the critical rejection of subjectivity itself. What’s over the horizon? Key questions were: How are you as photographers and image makers responding to these immense technological and cultural shifts? What are you thirsty for now?

Around 1.500 image makers from all over the world responded to the open call and Rødland selected and sequenced the ninety photographs in this issue.
