FOTOTREFF Berlin on Instagram
![We are very happy to welcome Andrea Diefenbach @andreadiefenbach to our Instagram account this week! Andrea will be showing a selection of images from the series ‘Realitatea'.
Andrea Diefenbach (*1974) studied at the University of Applied Sciences in Bielefeld, works with German and international magazines and organizations, as well as on her personal long-term projects. For her critical and incisive reflection of social situations she has received several prizes.
Her first book, “СПИД [spid] AIDS in Odessa” about the AIDS epidemic in the Ukraine, was published by Hatje Cantz in 2008 followed by exhibitions in Hamburg, Mannheim, and New York, among other venues. Her second book, “Land ohne Eltern,” (Country without Parents), was published in November 2012, and a second edition was published in June 2016. For more than two years she followed the life of Moldovan migrant workers in Italy, as well as that of their children staying back in Moldova. This work has been widely published and has toured internationally as an exhibition.
Andrea had been teaching photography at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts since 2016 and became a full professor at the University of the Arts in Bremen, Germany in September 2022.
“Realitatea” is her third book. Diefenbach’s work has been shown at the Hamburger Kunsthalle, the Folkwang Museum Essen, the Reiss Engelhorn Museum Mannheim, and the Munich Stadtmuseum, among many others.](https://fototreff-berlin.de/wp-content/plugins/instagram-feed/img/placeholder.png)
