interview<br />

WITH MARKUS VAN HAUTEN<br />

BY MARKUS BRANDSTETTER<br />

How did you get into photography?<br />

I’ve bought my first camera in 2006. I never got in touch with photography before. I visit Iceland<br />

for the first time in 2006 and started photography. With this trip my interest was awakened, and<br />

I steadily professionalized my hobby.<br />

You have different genres of photography like sports, animals, architecture and landscape.<br />

What is your favourite genre?<br />

Yes, of course, I first started with sports photography and animals and later in 2013, I started<br />

landscape photography. That's now the thing I love to do most.<br />

How did you come to landscape photography?<br />

During some trips into the Alps, I got infected by the virus called “landscape photography”.<br />

Is photography your main income or is it rather a hobby?<br />

<strong>Photo</strong>graphy is not my main business it is a “professional” hobby for me.<br />

10


You really have some beautiful images. What is your favourite landscape motif (like<br />

forest, mountains, rivers or the sea)?<br />

Hard to decide…I think mountains and seascapes, especially in the northern regions.<br />

To take some good landscape images as you do is so much more than to walk to a nice<br />

place and capture something. Can you tell us something about your process and if you<br />

use some technical stuff like apps for preparation?<br />

First of all, thank you. To be prepared is necessary. So, I take a lot of time to prepare for a trip.<br />

Normally I have only a few days for my photographic trips and a plan where to go and when<br />

the best time is to be there. The only thing you cannot plan is the weather and that's a big part<br />

when it comes to landscape photography!<br />

How much time do you spend in photography?<br />

That depends on different things. When I am planning a trip, I spend a lot of time to be prepared.<br />

Checking Google Maps for locations and routes to and back from the spots. After such a<br />

trip it's time to develop and then, I try to send the pictures to <strong>Photo</strong> competitions.<br />

interview<br />

WITH MARKUS VAN HAUTEN<br />

BY MARKUS BRANDSTETTER<br />

You have some amazing long exposure images in your portfolio. What kind of filters<br />

do you use, and which do you personally prefer most?<br />

Yes, of course, I often use filters for my photographic work. For 1.5 years I use the brand KASE<br />

Filters. These filters are glass made and very sturdy, you can combine them and get no colour<br />

shifting. I often use the ND 3.0 in combination with GND1.2.<br />

What kind of software do you use to edit your work?<br />

I use Adobe Lightroom, Adobe <strong>Photo</strong>shop and Skylum Luminar.<br />

What do you think about editing and post processing and how much time do you spend<br />

on it?<br />

I think in digital photography it is really important like the darkroom in analogue photography.<br />

I try not to spend too much time editing my images. Usually, I would think 10 minutes on average.<br />

Some people have the opinion that this kind of a photo is not a „true „photo because<br />

of post-processing. How do you think about it?<br />

As I said, in analogue photography, they did the same. I would never exchange the sky or something<br />

other, but I think editing to a certain extent is OK.<br />

interview<br />

WITH MARKUS VAN HAUTEN<br />

BY MARKUS BRANDSTETTER<br />

In many photography groups, for example on Facebook, people very often discuss the<br />

perfect image or the perfect shot. What is the „perfect shot „for you and how do you<br />

think about it?<br />

Honestly, I don’t know. I think I never took “that” perfect picture. There are a lot of good pictures<br />

out there and perfect photo you eventually need: Perfect light, perfect foreground, perfect<br />

background, and a perfect moment.<br />

Do you think it's the most important thing to have the newest high-end full-frame<br />

photo equipment to take a good photo?<br />

No, of course not! To have the newest gear is a good thing and can help a lot but, you need a<br />

good eye for composition to catch the moment. You take the picture and not the camera!<br />

How important is your gear to execute your artistic visions get and what equipment<br />

do you use?<br />

As mentioned already, you need the eye for the moment but having good gear is a good thing. I<br />

18


use Canon cameras (5D MKIV and EOS R) and lenses also from Canon. Filters from KASE, Gloves<br />

from “THE HEAT COMPANY” and of course a tripod and a backpack.<br />

Many photographers only talk about the newest gear and not as much about creativity<br />

or image composition. What is your opinion about it?<br />

Creativity is the most characteristic thing you need in photography the second necessary thing<br />

is image composing and the third is the gear.<br />

We very often see the same motives in images over and over again, especially on<br />

Facebook. What do you think about all these high traffic photo spots with sometimes<br />

more than 20 photographers simultaneously out there?<br />

This is a problem but we (photographers) are one of the reasons why the other peoples are<br />

there! People see our pictures and want to go there, too. This is the reason why I do not tag<br />

not well-known spots. Crowds of people will follow, and the natural places might get destroyed.<br />

But I do also travel to well-known places because a lot of them are fantastic. Sometimes it is<br />

hard to take pictures there, but it is possible.<br />

Do you have a favourite place to take pictures but could not manage to get there till<br />

now?<br />

Yes, maybe New Zealand, I guess.<br />

interview<br />

WITH MARKUS VAN HAUTEN<br />

BY MARKUS BRANDSTETTER<br />

What have been your most impressive experience in landscape photography?<br />

I think my best pictures are from Iceland and I will never forget how I took them. These moments<br />

in primordial nature with amazing conditions will forever stay in my mind.<br />

What advice would you give to young photographers who are starting into landscape<br />

photography?<br />

It takes time to get a landscape photographer. Look at the best photos and watch tutorials on<br />

how they do the work and how they are planning their pictures. Do not give up, have faith and<br />

ask others for their advice.<br />

Thank you very much for taking the time and give me this interview. May the light be<br />

with you! :)<br />

“YOU DON’T FIND YOUR STYLE;<br />

YOUR STYLE FINDS YOU”<br />

BY THOMAS FÜNGERLINGS<br />

Someone told me he was looking for his<br />

style of photography. Everyone likes to<br />

hear that when said that I love your style.<br />

I think you can’t find it somehow, but it will<br />

come to you.<br />

The thing is, everyone does in the long run<br />

only what he enjoys. And if you enjoy it,<br />

you do it more often. If you do not like<br />

to take pictures of animals, then you will<br />

never become the "animal photographer”.<br />

If you do something with passion, then you<br />

will do so over a long period.<br />

With such a motivation may be a specialisation<br />

arises and you take pictures again<br />

and again, for example in the street.<br />

If you can identify with street photography,<br />

if you like to look at such photos and if you<br />

want to present yourself with such works,<br />

then we can get closer to it.<br />

To find something new/own, you have to "cultivate" this / your style for a very long time. In<br />

photography, it is not easy to do something fundamentally new.<br />

Be aware; almost every style shows influences of other artists, works or styles. It's overall the<br />

mix and the selection of techniques.<br />

If you want to find your style, if your photos should stand out from the crowd, if the work should<br />

be recognisable as yours, then you have to think about it. It can, e.g. the type of processing<br />

(e.g., high contrast b/w). Or you take photographs from a particular perspective or the point<br />

of view (for example, from the ground). Or you always have some aspects in the picture (for<br />

example signs).<br />

With that foundation in mind, you're going to the streets, again and again, making "your" pictures.<br />

Then you may find your recognisable style. My three photo tips ... not only for your style<br />

26


COLUMN<br />

“YOU DON’T FIND YOUR STYLE;<br />

YOUR STYLE FINDS YOU”<br />

1. Take pictures every day and even take more pictures. Only practice makes perfect. Make<br />

at least one more series of each scene where you are right now.<br />

2. Just take one camera with one lens or smartphone and leave the backpack at home. You<br />

can focus so much easier and get to know "your" camera with the one lens much better.<br />

3. Also take a look at the trivial, just like that and again and again. You will see and understand<br />

that every little thing still has at least one more page.<br />

Example: I took 100 different pictures of the IKEA chair "Stefan". You think, 100 photos of a<br />

chair? That does not work! You always get new ideas coming from different perspectives, light<br />

or compositions. Try it yourself. Here is my short YouTube video of this IKEA challenge<br />

ANALOGUE HEARTS<br />

BY NIKITA STUPIN


ANALOGUE HEARTS<br />

by Nikita Stupin<br />

I have learned this skill over the years. To be able to forget a hundred times more important<br />

than an ability to memorize, as well as being able to stop in time, is far more important than<br />

skill to start better than others.<br />

How often do we know when to stop? How many of us have this universal sense of tact, so<br />

necessary for photography, where the basic principle of action is “stopping time”? I do not<br />

think that many, but I am sure that some.<br />

The analogous past of photo art was taken away into the darkness of past years by the masters<br />

who acted as part of the “Decisive Moment”, leaving us alone with their silent inheritance.<br />

The great photographers of the past were distinguished from today’s leaders by one extremely<br />

important, I would even say, fundamental feature - they could say “stop” to themselves.<br />

Being limited to a certain, clearly delineated number of frames embedded in the potential of<br />

a film reel, these people knew how to save frames as well as they could wait for their “Decisive<br />

Moment” (please note that when I say “save” I do not mean make fewer photos in total)<br />

The era of consumption dictates new laws and rules to us, one of which is excessiveness in<br />

everything we do, which inevitably reduces the quality and, most importantly, the value of<br />

what we create.<br />

ANALOGUE HEARTS<br />

ANALOGUE HEARTS<br />

by Nikita Stupin<br />

16 gigabytes, 32, 128, more megapixels per sensor, a lens worth the whole car, likes, subscribers, customers and<br />

orders - all this makes a modern photographer crazy, makes you unpack a new camera on YouTube in the hope of<br />

gaining popularity or rejoice as crazy to another hundred of endorsements in social networks.<br />

We are crazy and this madness has nothing to do with photography. Today, for self-affirmation, we need the voices<br />

of others to confirm our talent. We are no longer artists who infinitely believe in their creations, we are beggars begging<br />

for money for another dance with a tambourine in the pouring rain before those who will not even remember<br />

our names tomorrow. And this search for something outside is doomed to failure in advance because we left all the<br />

best dust gathering inside.<br />

Street <strong>Photo</strong>graphy today is not one<br />

brilliantly built frame, its hundreds,<br />

thousands of mediocre shots and the<br />

hope of the shooter to pull something<br />

worthwhile out of this swamp.<br />

Today, not talent has become a guarantee<br />

of quality, but the amount that<br />

promises theoretically possible success.<br />

Street <strong>Photo</strong>graphy is a hunt, a process<br />

that requires the utmost concentration<br />

of attention and sharpness<br />

of vision; it is one of the most difficult<br />

disciplines in the world of photographic<br />

art. The shutter click is not a<br />

machine-gun line of a boy distraught<br />

with fear. This is an accurate and<br />

precise shot in the head by a sniper<br />

holding its breath, considering everything,<br />

even the Coriolis effect. One<br />

shot - one frame. And nothing less.<br />

Only in this way, saving frames and<br />

calculating each frame, it is possible<br />

to gain an understanding of the very<br />

essence of the photo - its surgical accuracy.<br />

Hundreds of useless courses eagerly<br />

teach people to master the craft of<br />

unnecessary things: photo processing,<br />

working with light, with models,<br />

with technology and a million other<br />

different pearls of wisdom.<br />

32


Recently, I stumbled upon a course where people paid money to learn how to properly breed a customer for<br />

money. Lord, they teach that which usually remains secret. They sell what the photographer must study himself,<br />

in the evenings and nights, while sorting out his camera, trying settings, playing with the light, learning science<br />

the same way the Greats from the past did it.<br />

For all the time of my communication with many teachers of photography, not from one person, never I have heard<br />

a decent explanation on the need for saving time and shots, restraint in their impulses and alignment of actions.<br />

I would really like everyone to try to study this magic art on their own. After all, this is the only way we get a<br />

chance not only to touch the greatness but also to become part of it.<br />

It is unlikely that I will be able to guarantee success in understanding this particular, metaphysical part of photographic<br />

art, but I can tell you about four rules that I adhere to myself and maybe, for someone, they will become a<br />

point of reference on the path to understanding this approach, and otherwise, these tips will be faithful assistants<br />

in the Street <strong>Photo</strong>graphy. So, I want, and with this intention, I present them to you. Be faithful to the traditions<br />

of our art and most importantly - while living in the digital age, STAY ANALOGUE INSIDE.<br />

Rule 1<br />

36 frames.<br />

Divide your entire<br />

street hunt into 36<br />

frames. For convenience,<br />

buy 3 memory<br />

cards of 16 gigabytes<br />

(this will be<br />

more than enough)<br />

and take no more<br />

than 36 pictures for<br />

each one. Change the<br />

card when shot all<br />

the 36 frames. Such<br />

a simulation of working<br />

with a limited<br />

number of frames on<br />

a film will allow you<br />

to cultivate a value<br />

attitude to what you<br />

are doing, to every<br />

frame of yours and<br />

will certainly increase<br />

the level of awareness.<br />

Rule 2<br />

Forget about LCD.<br />

Leica has already realized<br />

this principle<br />

and preparing to release<br />

the first digital<br />

camera without the<br />

possibility of using an<br />

LCD screen.<br />

33


ANALOGUE HEARTS<br />

35


ANALOGUE HEARTS<br />

by Nikita Stupin<br />

You should try to completely exclude viewing of captured frames. During the interaction with the camera, you<br />

are fully focused on what is here and now, at all that is in the past, you should look at home. Learn to trust<br />

yourself, the settings on your camera and your guts. Forget about the screen!<br />

Rule 3<br />

Plan, plan and plan again.<br />

Always put concrete and a clear plan of the shooting day. My main attribute along with the camera has always<br />

been and will be a small black notebook that inextricably follows me wherever I go with my camera. Before going<br />

on the hunt, in the days of preparation for work, I prescribe how many frames and what specifically I want<br />

to shoot. For example: Faces of people, close - 10, details of walls - 10, architecture - 5, etc. You can structure<br />

your plan as you want, make it detailed or general, whatever! The plan will allow you to perform your actions<br />

clearly and consciously, and it will also not allow you to forget about adhering to the rule number one.<br />

Rule 4<br />

Wait.<br />

Haste is the enemy of Street <strong>Photo</strong>graphy. Wait. Watch and wait for exactly the moment in which you see your<br />

idea, through which the previously written plan will realize your success. Remember - there is no hurry, be patient<br />

and wait for your “Decisive Moment”.<br />

“Your eye must see a composition or an expression that life itself offers you, and you must<br />

know with intuition when to click the camera.”<br />

Henri Cartier-Bresson<br />

Let’s love the art that allowed us to freely express ourselves and treat with respect to every frame that gives our<br />

genius a chance to live forever.<br />

MICO PAVLOVIC<br />

Biography:<br />

Born in Boka Kotorska, Yugoslavia, Mico grew up in the town of Herceg -<br />

Novi. He had no formal photographic training and was first introduced to<br />

photography by a high school friend as an after-school activity.<br />

Over the last thirty plus years, Mico’s photographs have been featured in<br />

solo and group exhibitions as well as in books, world-leading photographic<br />

magazines and artist catalogues.<br />

Since 1989 Mico has lived and worked in London UK.<br />

Project Balance:<br />

Why Balance?<br />

Because nature’s aim is stability which isn’t necessarily growth which can be<br />

excessive, disturbing and irrational.<br />

Growth or balance?<br />

My Balance project was created having in mind this dilemma and the project<br />

suggests that those who speak about Balance as an alternative should be<br />

listened to more carefully.<br />

Andy Feltham is a self-taught photographer who lives in Northampton, UK. He has been<br />

exhibited in the UK and Italy and featured in numerous publications, both online and in<br />

print. In March 2017, he released his first monograph entitled, Incidental View, released by<br />

Portuguese publisher Camera Infinita. He has also been commissioned to work in the commercial<br />

as well as the fine art setting.<br />

Feltham seeks to create a tension within each photograph by using meticulous technique,<br />

framing and exposure to detach the subject from its surroundings. This lends a subtle disquiet<br />

to the underlying themes of beauty, mortality and humour that hallmark his work.<br />

PHOTOREVIEW<br />

SASHA ASENSIO<br />

Born and raised in Brazil. Fifteen years ago he moved to Barcelona, to the neighbourhood of<br />

El Raval, so he could daily portrait its people and scenery, being its unique scenery.<br />

His relationship with photography is anthropological and social, breaking with silences and the<br />

opacity of unusual, remote or clandestine existences. Through his images, he seeks tension as<br />

well as giving visibility to people living in the outskirts of the social system. The humanity of<br />

these figures outcomes beauty standards.<br />

MARTÍN PEDRÓS<br />

My name is Martín Pedrós, I was born and I live in Buenos Aires. I think that I inherited my passion<br />

for photography from my father. I always remember taking pictures with his Minolta XG9,<br />

a camera that I still have. In my adolescence I learned photography with that camera but I never<br />

did the development.<br />

For those things of the life I lay aside the photography for a while and renew the passion with the<br />

digital cameras. From 2009 until now I have done some workshops but I am I am largely selftaught,<br />

I like to learn seeing photos of my favorite photographers (like Steve Mc Curry, Annie Leibovitz,<br />

Henri Cartier-Bresson, Ansel Adams, José María Mellado and Joe McNally among others) and I<br />

have some interesting books for permanent<br />

consultation.<br />

I really like portrait photography, street photography, landscape photography and travel photography.<br />

On this occasion I am presenting photographs of trips and places, some taken in Europe and<br />

others from Argentina, my country.<br />

CÉDRIC BRION - CLAVICULE-PICS<br />

Self-taught photographer born in 1978, my name is Brion Cédric aka Clavicule-Pics, living in<br />

the city of Mons in Belgium.<br />

Passionate about travelling, I first turned to landscape photography that I have been practising<br />

for over 7 years.<br />

Equipped at the beginning of a small compact device, I end up investing in professional equipment<br />

for the rest of my travels: Iceland, Norway, Scotland, United States, Slovenia ...<br />

The discovery of Iceland was for me a real revelation: the immensity of the places, the lights,<br />

the colours... a beauty in the pure state. It is back from this trip that I began to learn the different<br />

image editing software. To discover and photograph countries knowing how to preserve<br />

the magic of the moment, here is the objective that I am in my photographs. I like to feel that<br />

I can, in a split second, immobilize the world in perpetual movement.<br />

4 years ago, my thirst for photos never satisfied took me to portrait photography. Very different<br />

from landscape photography, I learned the different techniques necessary for this style of<br />

photos, light management, flash, ...<br />

Since then, I decided to give a professional turn to my passion for photography by opening my<br />

own studio in Mons. I was also lucky to be in several magazines and classified in several photo<br />

competitions<br />

PAULO SOLIPA<br />

Paulo Solipa was born in Lisbon in the year 1971.<br />

He made his first photos with his father’s Zenit E analogue camera.<br />

As his passion grew, he purchased a Canon 50 E in 1999. At the end of<br />

2004 he bought his first digital camera which offered him new possibilities.<br />

Since 2016 he is shooting his photos in RAW. His work is displayed<br />

on several websites and gained worldwide recognition.<br />

Paulo is dedicated to nature and urban landscape photography. He creates<br />

his photos mostly during the dawn or the twilight, to capture the<br />

magical hours with their very own luminosity. The sun and water are<br />

also important elements in his images. In his photography, he seeks to<br />

capture moments that transmit emotions and feelings. Paulo is an autodidact<br />

most of his knowledge he adopted from books and magazines.<br />

PAULINA S KONIECZNA<br />

was born in 1989 in Koscian, Poland. I graduated from the Faculty of Law at<br />

I Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan. Since June 2018 I am a co-founder<br />

and photographer at Newbie Studio, based in Warsaw, Poland.<br />

I have photographed since May 2016. My first camera was Canon 100d with<br />

18-55 mm lens. In the beginning, I took shots of flowers, plants, insects and<br />

landscapes. I did not want to be an amateur photographer, so I put emphasis<br />

on self-development. I read books to understand better technical issues and<br />

what is more significant in photography - content of the photo. I also completed<br />

two courses on newborn posing and practical workshop on photography.<br />

Currently, I am an art photographer who mainly takes shots of children. My<br />

portraits, due to applied lighting pattern (i.e. Rembrandt lighting) and postprocessing<br />

techniques, refer to painting. I try to create photos which show<br />

beauty, sensitivity and charm of my young models. What is important for me is<br />

that I want to give them something special, timeless and unique, which makes<br />

them smile and will be reminding them of our meeting.<br />

I have been shortlisted in the 8th edition of “Portret 2018” competition. I plan<br />

to create a series of artistic portraits of children with different disabilities and<br />

diseases. I would like to show that each child is beautiful.<br />

JESPER KRIJGSMAN<br />

WONDROUS WILDERNESS / SUPERNATURAL / DIGITAL DAYDREAMS<br />

The work of Zürich-based Dutch artist and designer Jesper Krijgsman has a classical<br />

sensibility: Lush and colorful compositions of an arcadian world one would<br />

encounter in a dream. The artist invites you to step out of our fast-paced and<br />

modern society and into a land where nature’s diversity is celebrated, and mystical<br />

qualities are amplified.<br />

Although his natural scenes are fictional, a sense of realism is added through a<br />

certain attention to detail. Instead of traditional painting, the artist digitally combines<br />

his hundreds of single photographs taken of plants, animals and textures to<br />

build his paradisiacal collages. By utilizing exclusively elements gathered from our<br />

natural world, the artist hopes to revive a sense of enchantment and appreciation<br />

for our environment.<br />

Gerasimos Platanas is a self-taught photographer born in Corfu, Greece (1982). Started<br />

photography in 2007 and he uses a digital camera for his creation. At the 2011-2012 he<br />

participated in semester course for analogue photography in Fondazione Studio Marangoni,<br />

in Florence Italy.<br />

His photography has been featured in several publications, including Eyemazing Susan,<br />

Sarmad <strong>Magazine</strong>, Adore Noir <strong>Magazine</strong>, Blur <strong>Magazine</strong>, Unvael Journal, Woven Tale Press,<br />

B&W Minimalism <strong>Magazine</strong>.<br />

PHOTOREVIEW<br />

GERASIMOS PLATANAS<br />

Also, he has collaborated with several experimental bands for art covers like Art Zoyd.<br />

PORTRAITS (2012-2017)<br />

These works can especially focus on texture and its inherent emotional qualities, the way a<br />

visual pattern can intrigue, repulse, stimulate. But interestingly, in this series, you will find<br />

a shift in focus from that sharp clarity to a greater ambiguity—with a greater play on shadows<br />

and silhouettes, and most uncharacteristically perhaps, the blurring of an image. And<br />

indeed, you will find here not only that signature darkness but also crisp imagery, especially<br />

in some exquisite “portraits” of the reflected in broken mirrors or glass.<br />

Platanas here achieves a different kind of tension: the subject itself is not so much seen<br />

clearly as merely implied, something grand and phantasmic captured mid-blink. Some of<br />

these images are so obscured, they venture entirely into the abstract.”<br />

Am Kaiserkai


PHOTOREVIEW<br />

ALEXANDER SCHÖNBERG<br />

Alexander Schönberg was born in 1979 in Orenburg (Russia), is the second son in a German<br />

family. In 1994, his family moved to Germany, and since 2000, Alexander lives in<br />

Hamburg.<br />

In my childhood I discovered an interest in painting and music. From the youthful age for<br />

fifteen years he was engaged in music and later writing lyrics, until in October 2015 he<br />

came to a photo on the doctor’s recommendation “just to walk more”. After an hour he held<br />

his first camera in his hands.<br />

- Thanks to photography, I had the opportunity to capture my personal point of view on the<br />

scenes and objects of everyday life, so she quickly became the medium of my communication<br />

with the world.<br />

- It became necessary for me to convey my feelings and ideas through my photos to other<br />

people. The very process of photographing, as well as the variety of reviews for individual<br />

works, are for me the most attractive aspect of my work.<br />

- I do not like to work in a certain style and do not limit myself in my work, but think a lot<br />

more in projects, trying to make my pictures as timeless as possible. So it was in the last 2<br />

years, among other things, a project of mine to bring the most beautiful bridges in Hamburg<br />

to an illustrated book, currently there is only one copy of this book “The Bridges of Hamburg”<br />

at whitewall store in Hamburg to win, what then I do not know yet. Another project is<br />

called “smoking [f] aces” and deals with the theme of a portrait with cool, smoking people<br />

on it, and beyond that, I love to portray the children. I enjoy working with people and people<br />

usually play a central role in my work, it is important for me that a model has character<br />

and charisma and does not necessarily look nice. I love to travel and of course, my camera<br />

should not be missing, trying to keep the street scenes of everyday life.<br />

Dripping Eternity


PHOTOREVIEW<br />

VALERIE KABIS<br />

The photograph began with words. There were diaries, notes, attempts to express what<br />

I’ve seen, the images I tried to internalize. The feelings of colourful days and night visions,<br />

some emotion that got stuck in my memory or a face of a stranger passing me by on<br />

the street, a lonely cloud in the sky, a reflection of some ruins in a puddle, everything around<br />

me that one way or another would make its way to my consciousness or would simply stun<br />

me with its beauty required another medium of articulation.<br />

With time, the words would go out of their own context. it became increasingly harder to<br />

pronounce the exact feelings with only letters and to achieve this with an optimal meaning of<br />

the word. That’s how the first images appeared. It was still a diary, but a visual one instead.<br />

I often focus on the details of my subjects; be it an object, dust, raindrops on my window or<br />

a person from a different, still unexplored angle that presents itself to me or perhaps for me.<br />

My photographs are particles of my own essence, of how I see my surroundings, hidden from<br />

sight and immediate recognition. These images are visualizations of how the world reflects<br />

on me and how I reflect in it in return. The ambiance and I are paying each other with the<br />

same coin, It gives me the ability to create and it shapes me instead. This is a network of<br />

2 substances, constantly inspiring one another. Yet another aim at slowing down for just an<br />

instant, fixating the moment.<br />

BERND GROSSECK


PHOTOREVIEW<br />

BERND GROSSECK<br />

My name is Bernd Grosseck, born in 1967. I have taken photographs since the age of<br />

14. In recent years I found my vision for my photographic journey. Now I express<br />

my idea with “minimal scenery” images. My main photographic interests lie in minimalist<br />

landscape photography, urban still-lifes and street photography.<br />

Our world, our life is highly complex and dynamic. So, I appreciate the photography,<br />

the tranquillity of nature as an antithesis to the at times hectic daily life. <strong>Photo</strong>graphy<br />

makes me look at things in much closer details. This “intensive” viewing and the pleasure<br />

of taking the results of my motif search home with me, along with spending quality<br />

time outside are essential for me to, also to fulfil my passion for photography and for<br />

my creative mind.<br />

Viewing my images should be an act of looking through a frame with minimal elements,<br />

excluding all the noise. I prefer a simple, clear picture language, radically reducing it to<br />

a minimum.<br />

Many of my photos were taken in my local area. I prefer “slow travelling “with my camera,<br />

sometimes only just for a few hours near the place where I am living. „Slow-travelling<br />

“allows me to get a stronger connection to the places I am visiting or to explore<br />

natural locations in my environment. So often it doesn´t take much, not a far trip to<br />

realise my vision of photography. I find interesting motives to show the „unknown inside<br />

the well-known “, usually by walking in nature or driving slowly on narrow streets.<br />

FRANCESCA PIQUERAS<br />

EXHIBITION AT THE GALERIE DE L’EUROPE<br />

55, rue de Seine – Paris 75006 – FRANCE<br />

February 18 - March 31 <strong>2019</strong><br />

« MOVIMENTO »<br />

« My approach is unusual, and my vision deeply personal.<br />

It is true that I do not satisfy myself with a mere record of reality.<br />

I intend to transfigure it and enhance its aesthetical, emotional and artistic dimension.<br />

I use shapes, shadows and light not only to show but to make feel.<br />

I do not judge mankind’s madness.<br />

I look deep into it and glimpse the shadow of my own soul.<br />

I watch the scars, the gashes inscribed in our landscape.<br />

They tell and write our history.<br />

These wounds remind me that every act bears its backlash.<br />

Which can be violent, but soul-stirring too.<br />

And awareness even worst ».<br />

Francesca Piqueras


Francesca Piqueras knows how to grasp the subtle nuances between balance and unbalance,<br />

between order and entropy. In « Movimento », her newest work, she combines her vision of<br />

the marble quarries in Carrara (Tuscany) and the massive release of water of the Chinese<br />

dams over the Yellow River in diptychs and single photographs. The clash of stillness and<br />

motion, of stone and the watery element is consistent with her artistic focus, and she keeps<br />

transcending the wounds made to nature by humanity capable of both creation and chaos into<br />

an almost surreal interpretation, a visual scenography. Her photographs bear a metaphysical<br />

meaning, almost a prophecy. If matter crumbles and dilutes itself, if it bears the traces of the<br />

passing of humankind, it is to better accentuate its possible metamorphosis, in a re-creation<br />

independent from the laws of nature and the hand of man.<br />

In this spontaneous geometry, elements, whether fluid or solid, frame a universe both oneiric<br />

and real, indifferent to our existence, a creative process out of the scope of our understanding<br />

of the order of the world, be it natural or human. In this very parallel existence that Francesca<br />

Piqueras choose to explore, she revisits our times, and reinterprets the concept of Anthropocene<br />

as an anthropo-scene, a metatheater where time itself loses controls and jams, accelerates<br />

the past and compresses the future. A time of relentless progress grinding and choking<br />

blindly rock, water and people. In this brutal transmutation which highlights the fragility of our<br />

human condition, Francesca Piqueras strongly expresses the bizarre, timeless but fundamentally<br />

contemporary aesthetics of archaeology of our present.<br />

BIOGRAPHY<br />

Francesca Piqueras is a French fine art photographer born in Milan (Italy). Both her parents were<br />

artists, and she took photography when she was 13. After studying Fine Arts and Cinema, she<br />

worked in the movies industry as an editor, then decided to answer her call. Her journey started<br />

in 2007 and took her to Bangladesh, Mauritania, Scotland, England, Peru, Cape-Verde, France,<br />

Argentina, Siberia, Italy and China, so far. Her work highlights the paradox of an industrial world<br />

gone mad. Her inner exploration of a post-industrial world littered with rusting and decaying<br />

man-made structures reveals the brutal splendour of gigantic steel constructions - offshore<br />

platforms, shipwrecks, warlike forts - soon forgotten in the open sea, or stranded for a trip of<br />

no return on a forlorn beach. Each of her exhibitions, which grace the walls of the prestigious<br />

Galerie de l’Europe in Paris, echoes the constant struggle of man’s mind against the elements,<br />

the never-ending battle.<br />
