Beyond the Binary: Santu
Mofokeng and David Goldblatt
At the museum campus in Neu-Ulm, The Walther Collection continues its focus on contemporary photography from Africa with the first dialogic exhibition of works by Santu Mofokeng (1956-2020) and David Goldblatt (1930-2018). Drawn from its extensive holdings and curated entirely out of the Collection, the exhibition opens dynamic spaces for re-evaluation and re-interpretation by interweaving the works of these extraordinary photographers.
Renée

We are delighted to announce the appointment of London-based curator, writer and art historian Renée Mussai as the first Artistic Director of The Walther Collection, and its new Chief Curator. The double role will comprise leading the Collection's curatorial, editorial and scholarly initiatives, alongside shaping its future artistic program vision and new acquisitions.
An established research-led curator and scholar of photography and visual culture, Renée joins The Walther Collection with more than 20 years’ experience in the arts, following two decades as senior curator and head of curatorial & collection at Autograph, London – a long-term role enhanced by a rich track-record of independent curating, publishing, writing and teaching internationally.
Working between London, New York and Neu-Ulm, Renée will be responsible for The Walther Collection’s wide-ranging international activities, with a focus on expanding the scope of its publishing program, collection development, and travelling exhibitions through institutional collaborations.
