ANNE BARTH · CHERIE BIRKNER · NATALIA CARSTENS · CHIARA DAZI · SUZANNE DE CARRASCO · SAMANTHA DIETMAR · MARLENE GAWRISCH · NANCY JESSE · VICORIA KÄMPFE · ISABELL KESSLER · TABEA MATTERN · SILKE MAYER · DELPHINE MILLET · VERONIKA HUBER NATTER · DEBORA RUPPERT · GUDRUN SENGER · SASKIA UPPENKAMP · MIMI VOLLGRAF · VIVIANE WILD · MIRJA ZENTGRAF

The exhibition LOOK AT ME NOW gathers different positions of female photographers, members of the Berlin Female Photoclub. This is the second joint exhibition of the group. Under the title LOOK AT ME NOW, a variety of different topics and issues are treated in the individual projects, all of which deal with the present (the NOW) each in their own way. The spectrum ranges from the martial art of Jiu Jitsu, to the self-chosen life of dropouts, to the personal coming to terms with an illness. The exhibition LOOK AT ME NOW is part of the official programme of the European Month Of Photography (EMOP) in March 2023. The EMOP theme “Touch” is constantly present in the exhibitions. In the end, looking at each very personal work, not only the NOW of the individual photographers, but also the broad spectrum of the Berlin group opens up to the visitors. “LOOK AT ME NOW” is not only a photography exhibition: it is an intimate glimpse into the works of professional female photographers using their medium to explore the theme of “touch“ in a variety of ways.

SPEKTREN Exhibition of the Female Photoclub Berlin

The exhibition brings together the work of 10 Berlin-based female photographers from the FEMALE PHOTOCLUB. Now, for the first time, a show of the Berlin group’s work is taking place in the rooms of the Treptow Ateliers on the grounds of the Rathenau-Hallen in Schöneweide. The architecture, with its more than one hundred years of history, from industrial site to current use by artists, creatives and craftspeople, and its uncertain future, reflects the city’s transformation. Under the title Spectra (from the Latin term “spectrum” for “image, appearance” and “specere” for “to see, to look”), a wealth of different photographic approaches is presented here.
Thus, similar themes and questions can be found in the individual works. Diverse bodies, glances, encounters show the many nuances of human and self-images. Partly fleeting, partly longer-lasting observations of being and society – in private, in public, in foreign places – characterize the photographers’ reflections. The pictures tell of being on the move and arriving, closeness and distance, but also of the materiality of bodies and photography itself. Accordingly, the title is also analogous to the light spectra and the frequency of certain wavelengths, which, as the visible part of radiation, change according to the refraction and angle of incidence of the light and are interpreted differently by the four sensory cells of our eyes. How are the viewpoints of the photographers, the different aspects of the human condition, perceived depending on the viewer? The exhibition is, as it were, an image of this, but it can never be a concrete image. It is the multiplicity of images and observations, the unpredictability of the encounters that reflect the many fragments of the human being. fragments of the human being.

That was “Islands Of Utopia”

A big thank you to the Museum für Subkulturen Berlin for letting me be part of the great exhibition ISLANDS OF UTOPIA.
Here is the complete series ‘Rummelsburger Bucht’.

Reclaim the Water!
Time and again, freethinkers, rebels and artists have gone on the water in search of new possibilities and means of expression which they could not find on land or which were denied to them due to ownership or laws. The increasing lack of space combined with inflation and the disappearance of open spaces in the cities has promoted the perception that the waters are also to be understood as public space and thus represent an option for expanding the living space. The photo exhibition shows international and Berlin projects and tells of repression as well as empowerment.

LOST – Art Festival 2017

Berlin’s abandoned Willner Brewery is expecting the same fate as many other locations in Berlin—an investor bought the areal and put an end to the countless cultural events that used to take place in the old buildings.

As a last tribute to this unique location a high-profiled artist collective created the LOST art festival during the last days before Christmas 2017.

Now imagine this abandoned brewery filled by 160 artists from the basement to the attic with all kinds of art for a 48h non-stop show. You walk from one room to the next and find an amazing piece in every corner.

Take a walk with me…

‘Labyrinth of Lies’ – Exhibition

I had the honor to document the exhibition ‘Labyrinth of Lies’ featuring the artist Sven Sauer and The Connor Brothers, that took place in an old abandoned brewery in Berlin last weekend.
