DER GREIF

Der Greif is an award-winning platform for contemporary photography that champions diverse voices and emerging talent. We use crowdsourcing to create accessible entry points for visual artists, photographers and image makers worldwide, breaking down barriers to participation in the art world.

Through our unique approach, Der Greif is the primary platform for our global community to create visibility, support with network and financial resources, at a career stage where other organizations can't provide our level of support.

Der Greif 19 by Zanele Muholi (Cover by Margarita Ivanova) | DER GREIF

New Issue: Der Greif 19 — "I Am Because of You, Mother Earth" by Zanele Muholi

Der Greif Issue 19 asks what environment means when we stop seeing it as something outside of ourselves, as suggested in Muholi's words "You are the environment. Your body is a landscape, your face a geography, your breath an atmosphere." Guest-edited by Muholi, with the support of the Alexander Tutsek-Stiftung, this issue gathers international submissions from photographers, visual artists, writers, and poets who refuse the borders between self and surroundings, between the personal and the political. The selected works have both bones and flesh: form and content, skill and lived experience. Together they follow a single thread: "Because of environment, I am. Because of you, I am. Because of them, I am."

How can we dismantle and reconstruct fables, superstitions, and folklore for the contemporary moment, probing how belief systems emerge, transform, and endure? ...

Together, we are looking beyond the traditional family portrait to examine family relationships in all their complexity. This call addresses family in every form, whether through bloodline, heritage, or chosen community. We encourage works that explore the performance of familial roles and challenge the deliberate choices behind what gets preserved in the album versus what remains unrecorded.
