Generation Ich

Michal Glazik, photographer and friend of mine, is showing work at a group exhibit in Hamburg: Generation Ich (Oct 10-25 at Spielbudenplz. 22)

There's not much info on the website, but Prinz Hamburg fills in the gaps:
Today's generation is not "Generation X" or "Generation Golf". They seek their identity not in groups, not in the zeitgeist. Who am I? What am I? The self is the focus. Even in contemporary photography, the confrontation with one's identity is always a central theme. But why is this generation so concerned with self? There's a public place where one can find out, or gain some insight. "Generation Ich" invites you to examine this ubiquitous topic through visuals.

Seven students of photography HAW Hamburg have taken up their own generation. In the exhibition "Generation Ich", they show their very personal work, where they have gone in search of the self.
