TRIPLE SEVEN
Berlin has undergone remarkable transformations since the 2010s. Walking through its streets, you'll see freshly painted facades, some buildings completely vanished, and new constructions standing tall. In Triple Seven, Anne Lass works with still life and portraits to track down gambling halls in Berlin, which are often a closed universe in themselves, and have now mostly disappeared.
While her original interest revolved around money, luck and hope, the meaning of her images has since evolved.
Her playful, poetic color photographs, taken between 2011 and 2014, capture now-vanished places that provoke a nostalgic reflection on the past. By stopping to observe and document these hidden spaces, she reminds you of the value of being present and taking stock of change – showing the importance of knowing your past for understanding your present.
In 2023, Lass noticed that those places had disappeared and resumed her project with photographs of the facades of these buildings. In this way, she inspires curiosity to see the city from new perspectives, and humility before the change that surrounds us.

Jörg Sasse at Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen, she has exhibited her work nationally and internationally. In her artistic work, she is interested in urban cityscapes, contrasts and traces of human interaction, and their influence on the environment.
- The exhibition is curated by Marina Paulenka, Director of Exhibitions, and Marie-Luise Mayer, Exhibitions Associate and Project Lead for Emerging Berlin. This exhibition is in partnership with photography print partner WhiteWall.
Emerging Berlin
Fotografiska Berlin is introducing a new talent program.
Berlin is a city full of stories, history and change. To empower our local artist community and discover new sides of Berlin, we are launching a talent program – Emerging Berlin – where photographers at the early stage of their career are given the space to exhibit at Fotografiska. Selected through an open call for proposals, the program will exhibit six artists per year in Fotografiska Berlin's graffiti hall, 3rd floor. The exhibiting artists receive a solo exhibition, mentorship, press and media opportunities, and direct professional exchange with experts from the field. The program will also include workshops and portfolio reviews open to the public, to continue to support local talent.
