Nevin Aladağ’s ongoing portrait series Best Friends documents similarly dressed friends in cities worldwide. Focusing on friends Aladağ photographed in Germany, curatorial fellow Peter Murphy will discuss how unspoken elements such as clothing and body language express both individual and shared identity.

This talk is offered in conjunction with the exhibition Made in Germany? Art and Identity in a Global Nation (September 13, 2024–January 5, 2025).

Led by:
Peter Murphy, Stefan Engelhorn Curatorial Fellow in the Busch-Reisinger Museum, Division of Modern and Contemporary Art
