With his third exhi­bi­tion in the Gal­lery for Con­tem­porary Pho­to­gra­phy, Peter Unter­mai­er­ho­fer once again pres­ents a jour­ney into the past in which the for­mer sple­ndor of for­got­ten archi­tec­tu­ral monu­ments is cele­bra­ted. Many of the 16 collec­ted fine art prints are being shown for the first time as part of an exhi­bi­tion and mainly come from the artist’s last voya­ges of dis­co­very to Bel­gium, Ger­many, France and Italy bet­ween 2019 and 202.

DIEMUT VON FUNCK: COLOR IS EVERYWHERE

The focus of this exhi­bi­tion, which inclu­des ten large-format works from 2019 to 2021, is the omni­p­re­sent color spec­trum of nature, which Die­mut von Funck inten­si­fies through tar­ge­ted inter­ven­ti­ons in the pic­to­rial space: As a star­ting point, the colors and with them the shapes and struc­tures form a con­stant in the image struc­tures, howe­ver lar­gely rede­fined and rein­ter­pre­ted into quasi-autonomous, abstract-expressive rhythms and patterns.

INGRID DORNER: LIMINAL

LIMINAL, a series con­sis­ting of 17 pho­to­gra­phic meta­mor­pho­ses, is the story of a world that des­troys its­elf while awa­ke­ning every one of our sen­ses. In this, the phy­si­cal dis­in­te­gra­tes, power­less in the face of a heavy exter­nal influ­en­ces and vio­lence. Using a che­mi­cal pho­to­gra­phic pro­cess in which the gela­tin on the paper deta­ches, shifts and reas­sem­bles, the artist inter­prets the dra­ma­tic and poe­tic meta­mor­pho­ses of sen­sual per­cep­tion in images.

VERO BIELINSKI: DIVERSITY MEETS BROOKLYN HIPSTERS

The exhi­bi­tion shows 21 pho­to­gra­phic works by the Bad Homburg-based photo artist Vero Bie­lin­ski as a cross-section of her series Brook­lyn Hips­ters and DIVERSITY. In her hips­ter series from 2012/13, which was also publis­hed as an artist book, she por­trays an urban, super­fi­cial and consumer-oriented sub­cul­ture, full of a lon­ging for indi­vi­dua­lity, while the prot­ago­nists of her DIVERSITY series play with out­da­ted role models and gen­der cli­chés — an “in bet­ween”, that goes beyond soci­ally ingrai­ned ste­reo­ty­pes and lights up in the pic­tures in a refres­hin­gly natu­ral way.

ALEXA MEADE │ STREET ART WORKS

Since her world­wide bre­ak­th­rough in 2010, the Ame­ri­can artist Alexa Meade (b. 1986) has fasci­na­ted with her spe­cial tech­ni­que that chal­len­ges the per­cep­tion: She doesn‘t paint on can­vas but paints what she sees on the objects them­sel­ves, thus beco­m­ing an inter­pre­ta­tion of them­sel­ves. In addi­tion, there‘s no visi­ble break line bet­ween the models or pain­ted objects and the sur­roun­ding space in the pho­to­gra­phic image, crea­ting the illu­sion of a two-dimensional, self-contained image sur­face. In her seventh exhi­bi­tion cura­ted by Ingo Seu­fert Gal­lery, a total of 21 fine art prints in the street art style will be pre­sen­ted, inclu­ding a pre­viously unseen work from 2012.

30 March 2022 – 30 April 2022

The gal­lery is clo­sed on Good Fri­day, April 15th, 2022.

The ten selec­ted works by seven artists – Josef Karl, Giu­seppe Lo Schiavo, Alex­an­der Maged­ler, Alexa Meade, Valen­tina Mura­b­ito, Ugo Ric­ci­ardi, Nobuyuki Tagu­chi – not only com­bine a con­scious exami­na­tion of the aes­the­tic pos­si­bi­li­ties of a color scale redu­ced to gray values, but also the inclu­sion of the tech­ni­cal requi­re­ments of the black and white pro­cess in the image design.

VALENTINA MURABITO. MYTHOS UND MAGIE

The Süd­deut­sche Zei­tung cal­led the Berlin-based photo artist Valen­tina Mura­b­ito (born 1981 in Giarre/Sicily) „alche­mist“ because she deve­l­o­ped a new che­mi­cal pro­cess in the dar­kroom crea­ting ana­log pho­to­graphs of fan­tas­tic beings. Her second exhi­bi­tion in our gal­lery is mainly dedi­ca­ted to the group of works “Bes­tia­rium”: Based on the 16 exhi­bi­ted works from the years 2019 to 2021, it beco­mes clear that Mura­b­ito is trans­fer­ring end­an­ge­red ani­mals into the world of mythi­cal crea­tures and the ima­gi­na­tion — the last place assi­gned to them if no pro­tec­tive mea­su­res are taken to pre­serve their habitat.

Die­mut von Funck + Bar­bara Weigand

Art meets Fashion

Bar­bara Wei­gand, owner of the IOSOY brand, is launching an artist edi­tion of her cou­ture series Easy­glam at the opening of the 2021 sea­son. The first Artist Edi­tion was crea­ted toge­ther with the photo artist Die­mut von Funck, whose high-contrast and color-intensive double-exposed pho­to­graphs were trans­fer­red to fabric. These take the viewer into light-drenched sce­ne­ries in parks and gar­dens. The trans­pa­rency and color of the plant motifs are remi­nis­cent of the rep­re­sen­ta­tion of sen­sual nature expe­ri­en­ces in French Impres­sio­nism and Japo­nism. In addi­tion to selec­ted pie­ces from the Easy­glam Cou­ture series, the exhi­bi­tion will also show nine large-format fine art prints by Die­mut von Funck.

Her spe­cial tech­ni­que of using acrylic paint to trans­form her models into flat, two-dimensional images of them­sel­ves, and thus to create a pain­terly inter­pre­ta­tion of them on their own sur­face, has inspi­red and fasci­na­ted people all over the world. In her sixth solo exhi­bi­tion cura­ted by the Gal­lery for Con­tem­porary Pho­to­gra­phy, Munich, 19 high­lights from the Munich exhi­bi­ti­ons from 2014, 2016 and 2018 are shown, plus four new works from the years 2017 to 2019.

Jazz­Bal­lade – a pho­to­gra­phic narrative

by Vin­zenz Löff­ler and Sebas­tian Flecker

A “pho­to­gra­phic nar­ra­tive” that accom­pa­nies a jazz musi­cian in his ever­y­day life toge­ther with his thoughts and lon­gings — Vin­zenz Löff­ler has been floa­ting this idea for many years and finally rea­li­zed it toge­ther with the Munich aut­hor Sebas­tian Fle­cker, who plays the figure of jazz pia­nist Blum in his texts brought to life.

BABYLON BERLIN, PHOTOGRAPHED BY JOACHIM GERN

Gern’s pro­duc­tions pene­trate to the core of the por­trayed, expo­sing their innards.

SEBASTIAN WEISE: IN THE HOOD

In 19 pho­to­gra­phic works the Thu­rin­gian artist Sebas­tian Weise (born 1975) looks into pla­ces of memory. He embarks upon a search for refe­rence points to the pre­sent moment that have been in part com­bi­ned and super­im­po­sed. Through this, Weise’s con­cept of home is not sta­tic. He con­stantly explo­res new ter­rain, pho­to­gra­phi­cally appro­pria­ting it and depic­ting in such a way that he remains asso­ciate to the loca­tion through the image. The artist uses the term ‘hood’ to mean first and fore­most what is being expo­sed and deci­phe­red from clues of the past. Typi­cal exam­ples of this are seen in the series “Aes­the­tics of Sur­ren­der” as well as in a series fea­turing aban­do­ned swim­ming pools loca­ted in the pre­sent time in cen­tral Ger­many that sati­ri­zes Ed Ruscha’s famous “Nine Swim­ming Pools and a Bro­ken Glass.”
