Point of departure of the group exhibition Behind the Billboard with work of four Dutch and four German photographers, is the idea of malleability of an identity. This central idea of constructing an idea – of a city, a product or a person – manifests itself on different levels within this exhibition. Some of the artists investigate the photographic medium in relation to the reciprocity of image and identity. Others show us a constructed or deconstructed ‘Outside’, where the malleability of our society and environment as well as its limitations become visible.

In January 2010, the collaboration between these female German and Dutch photographers started off with a first show titled ‘NowHere’ at the CBK in Rotterdam with the intention to bring th show to the other city: Berlin. For this ’sequal’, we as photographers invited Caroline von Courten as a curator and producer.
