In this edition, Candida Höfer documents the spectacular concert hall in Hamburg even before its official opening. The photographer, known for her matter-of-fact and deserted interiors, captures the 82-metre-long escalator – the longest in Europe – from a central perspective. Her reduced visual language makes the bright white walls and ceilings appear almost dematerialized and creates an atmosphere of transcendence.
