Magnum Photos powered by DER SPIEGEL
This will be an extraordinary day. We are proud to host Magnum photographers on the Conference Stage on Saturday in cooperation with the well-known news magazine DER SPIEGEL.
DER SPIEGEL – politically independent, not affiliated with any economic group, committed only to itself and its readers and users – has stood for investigative journalism for 75 years. Its editors set the news, provide context in an increasingly complex world and set the pace in public debate.
This is the ideal combination to interview Magnum Photos’ great photographers on the burning issues of the current times. Each photographer is assigned an editor from DER SPIEGEL as an interviewee.
Moderator: Heike Ollertz, Professor for Photography at the UE University of Europe for Applied Sciences

The Conference Stage
We set strong topics, initiate discussions and bring you valuable input.
We will probably not see this combination of photographers and editors on one stage in Germany again so soon.
The closed stage can be visited through our fairly priced conference ticket. The regular festival entrance fee for the respective day is of course directly included.
We have a limited capacity, so it’s best to decide quickly.
