Background information
"How do digital photography and Photoshop affect the visualization of architecture? 'Fiction & Fabrication. Photography of Architecture after the Digital Turn' brings together fascinating contemporary photography from around the world. From fictional constructs to real buildings that are sometimes more fantastic than fiction, the works are an impressive portrait of contemporary architecture and the surrounding urban landscape. In architectural photography, an exciting change is taking place: The seemingly neutral, realistic depiction gives way to an own, created reality.
