A selection of upcoming shows and events at Hamburg's Hilaneh von Kories Gallery and the Kulturreich exhibition space:

• In its current exhibition the Galerie Hilaneh von Kories presents new work by photo artist Corinna Holthusen (21st November, 2007 to 31th January, 2008).
  
  The show, entitled '[M] Reflections', exhibits a new selection of large-format portraits and body images that are a continuation of the artist's sceptical contemplation of the reality of the human image in photography.
  
  
• Kathrin Günter exhibits her series 'Star Shots 2' with the inauguration of the new gallery spaces at Kulturreich (6th December 2007 to 2nd February, 2008).
  
  Günter reveals the pseudo scandal beneath the alleged perfect appearance of celebrities within paparazzi photography, emphasising the absurdity on which the female 'star cult' is based and the damaging consequences that a daily 'in-scene-ing' can signal.
