Only a title such as “Deutscher Aktienindex 30+1” refers in Benjamin Samuel’s abstract picture series to the fact that the artist here depicts the stock market crash of 2008. Samuel uses computer-based algorithms to translate this event into an image. Together with Prof. Dr. Achim Wambach, President of the Centre for European Economic Research (ZEW) in Mannheim, Samuel will discuss how stock market phenomena can be depicted in a flickering play of colours.<\/p>\n

\nWhat is the relationship between artistic photography and science? Renowned photographic artists* and scientists* from various disciplines will discuss these issues from 16 January to 2 April 2020 in the eight-part international dialogue series “Photography & Science”. The artistic works form the starting point for a cross-disciplinary questioning of the medium and show the potential of photography to blur both areas together.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
