Staatspreis Manufactum I Abstract Photographs

In the organizer's words:

Exhibition as part of the Manufactum State Prize

abstract photography I Karsten Lindemann

The exhibited pictures show new possibilities of photography. Of interest are color, form and composition as well as the interplay of surface and line. Photographic techniques are expanded in unconventional ways. In addition to its traditional tasks, photography can take up the visual language of painting. It no longer has to take on the role of documentation, but can - like painting - be a platform for artistic freedom and experimentation. Works are created that have a painterly quality and are intended to touch the viewer aesthetically and emotionally.
