"On top - on top" stands for an elevated position as a working method and as a photographic perspective.
The exhibition presents four such positions - all landscape shots from the point of view of an elevated viewpoint:
icons of industrial photography by Bernd & Hilla Becher, images of the Atlantic Wall of her master student Matthias Koch, "European battlefields" by Swiss Peter Hebeisen and "Sight Sacralization: (Re) framing Switzerland "by renowned English photographer Simon Roberts.
In addition, the artists use photography as a medium of documentation and reflection. They show places that are historical or meaningful.
