Alte Nationalgalerie: A look behind the scenes of the National Gallery. Photographs by Andres Kilger

As a photographer working for the Alte Nationalgalerie since 1998, Andres Kilger has repeatedly turned his gaze to the holdings of the National Museums in Berlin. The 38 photographs now on display in the museum’s cabinet were taken as personal impressions of his forays through the houses and depots between 2003 and 2008 and reflect Kilger’s many years of work. Like any photograph, they reflect a subjective visual experience and at the same time open up a new perspective on the works in the collections for the viewer.
