Fleeting encounters in the streets of international metropolises, calm suburban scenes, thriving thoroughfares, quirky everyday settings – street photography presents the diversity of our urban spaces and the people who live in them. The exhibition Street. Life. Photography and its five kaleidoscopically arranged sections with different thematic approaches offer a range of very different perspectives on city life and ways of photographing the street. In this exhibition, international contemporary photographers like Maciej Dakowicz, Loredana Nemes and Harri Pälviranta are contrasted with historical positions such as those of Diane Arbus, Lee Friedlander, William Klein, Harry Callahan and Lisette Model.

With support from the Engagement Migros development fund, Fotomuseum Winterthur’s From Print to Pixel project is launching a next-generation museum offering. Together with various audience groups, skills are being developed for critical reflection in dealing with photographic images. Various online and offline channels, events and workshop will open the museum to the public as a place for discussion.
