“Nacht” (“Night”) is the title of Christian Reister’s latest series of black/white photos taken at clubs, bars, dives, takeaways and other settings of the Berliner nightlife. A first excerpt from the ongoing project will be shown in a solo exhibition at the legendary Hotel Bogota, photoplatz/Kabinett, near Kurfürstendamm, Berlin. The photos don’t show the usual glamorous pictures one might expect from the glossy magazines. Reister is interested in the collateral damages of a night gone awry and focuses on the side scenes.
At the evening of the opening there will be a special live performance of the musicians Andreas Albrecht and Marco Ponce Kärgel playing songs from Albrecht’s latest album “TAGEBUCHt” along with screenings of many more photographs from Reister’s NACHT project.
