The exhibition Color Mania – The Material of Color in Photography and Film provides an insight into the fascinating world of historical color processes and focuses on the material dimension of these colors and their interrelations. Film strips, large-format images and original prints, which usually remain hidden to the public as fragile archival documents, are presented. In addition, contemporary works by photographers and artists Dunja Evers, Raphael Hefti, Barbara Kasten and Alexandra Navratil demonstrate how historical color processes and techniques are applied today.
