Die Augen weit offen (Eyes Wide Open) reveals the unfiltered reality of East Germany through the eyes of a photographer deeply embedded in its political and social fabric. From his lifelong observation of Alexanderplatz, that started with his master’s thesis, to his documentation of the Vietnam War, Billhardt’s images document history as it unfolded: raw, intimate, and free from nostalgia.
