TAGE IM JULI ("DAYS IN JULY")
G20 IN HAMBURG – IMPRESSIONS OF A WEEK OF PROTESTS

More than a year after the G20 summit, which took place in Hamburg on July 7th and 8th 2017, the event itself and the protests it elicited leave their mark on the city as well as many unanswered questions. „Tage im Juli” showcases pictures of six photojournalists, who documented the different forms of protests sweeping the streets of Hamburg. Many of those were the product of long-term planning, whereas others were spontaneous reactions to the developments on the ground. In order to better understand and classify these activities and give voice to as many of those involved in the days of the summit as possible, more than a dozen interviews with with representatives of the police, labour unions, political parties, protest initiators, demonstrators, and residents supplement the photographs in the book.

Analogue and digital, black-and-white and full of colour, sometimes in the middle of the action and sometimes from afar – the photographers present a collection of impressive shots of an eventful week of protests.
