Show allGuided Tour
The two exhibitions present the best press photographs from Switzerland and around the world. One of the most important qualities of a press photo is its truthfulness. How is this achieved and what pictorial languages can be discerned? What does freedom of the press mean in photojournalism? The guided tour illustrates how images generate attention for current events.

Swiss Press Photo 23 showcases the best Swiss photo journalism from the last year. The photos give us a glimpse behind the headlines and provide a snapshot of 2022. The exhibition comprises some 130 photos of current events, such as the war in Ukraine and climate protests, everyday scenes from the hot summer of 2022, mesmerising portraits and gripping moments from the sporting year. Photography has a long tradition at the National Museum and proves time and again that despite the flood of digital images, photographs have lost none of their power.
