Andreas Mühe, one of the most renowned German photographers, takes a deep look at the collective memory of a nation that cannot escape the dark shad-ows of its past. His book entitled »Obersalzberg«, named after Hitler’s personal residence formerly located in the Alps, showcases a cycle of imag-es that unmask the maniacal orchestration of those years as an endless shift of scenes in front of a towering Alpine backdrop, where the leading characters of fascism staged their own show. The images are complemented by essays from Luc Tuymans, Hans Georg Hiller von Gaertringen, Matthias Struch and Karsten Ehlert.
