The exhibition "Reality hung up so I called" at the NRW-Forum Düsseldorf presents a selection of works from the past five years which deal with controversial socio-political topics regarding the transformation of the media. How do images constitute our ideas of the world? And what is the relationship between the real, the virtual, the imaginary and fiction? How has the digitalisation, immaterialisation, invigoration and globalisation of images changed us? Mareike Foecking’s works demonstrate that images have not just changed, but images of people have changed too and of the ways in which we will be handling images in the future.
