The photography of German artist Hans Georg Berger has always focused on investigating identity, whether personal or cultural. Here it is represented through 145 fine quality black and white photographs, printed using the silver gelatin process on baryta paper, starting with the negatives from the artist's Berlin archive.

The title Discipline and Senses brings together in a single theme the artist's profound intellectual experiences and the studies he carried out over the course of almost fifty years, from the 1970s to today. Berger's approach is based on the ethical, not just aesthetic, centrality of the subject of the photograph. It is a remarkable and probably unique journey into great contemporary photography.
