Each spring, the National Museum Zurich presents a selection of the best photojournalism from Switzerland. The exhibition ‘Swiss Press Photo 25’ takes a look back at some striking images from the previous calendar year. As well as showing current events, frequently from fresh perspectives, the photos take visitors on a journey. In the exhibition, some 150 pictures will be on display in the categories News, Daily Life, Swiss Stories, People, Sports and World. Impressive works by the winners in each of the various categories will be on show at the National Museum Zurich.

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.
