Thomas Florschuetz
The Dominican priory of La Tourette near Lyon, built by Le Corbusier in the late 1950s, provided Thomas Florschuetz with the motifs for his Framing series from 2019, which shows significant details of the architecture in reduced images.
The dynamics of the artist’s compositions are inspired by the lines of the building elements as well as their surface textures, coloring and the momentary lighting situation. Minimal deviations in perspective result in images that appear abstract in large part, the architectural references fading into the background and only remaining evident in isolated areas. The focus thus oscillates between planar composition and depth effect, between abstract picture and a visceral sensation of space.

„Lake Pictures is a series of photographs of Lake Huron, one of the Great Lakes surrounding the state of Michigan, taken at the same place, during different seasons, and at different times of day or night, exploring the changing atmospheric nature of the lake. These pictures are about water, sky ,color, light, place, space and time. When we look at a large body of water, intellectually we know that there is more water beyond the horizon. If we suspend our intellects, our mind's eye perceives the water as occupying infinite space. The same concept is true regarding the sky. It appears limitless. The way we can distinguish between the two is the fine demarcation line of the horizon that separates water from sky.“ - Lucinda Devlin about her series Lake Picture

Melanie Manchot
In rectangular frames behind Plexiglas Melanie Manchot strings together Alpine postcards to form short mountain ranges. Only in the grazing light does it become clear that the postcards are actually vinyl records. Disguised as postcards, they were smuggled into Poland in the 1970s, among other places, to spread Western pop songs, which were still banned there at the time. A connection on the side of the frames allows short medleys of the respective songs to be played, which Manchot has stored on a hard drive on the back of the frames.

Dreamer is a work about states of mind caught up between dream and reality, between loneliness and hope. Solitude, anxiety, pain, and loss can affect any of us.

Lena von Goedeke
Lena von Goedekes works are accomplices and ambassadors of nature. They show nature, as landscape, mountains and sea, sand and rock; they orientate on nature, imitate her copious faces, like the sparkle of ice, the warmth of wood or the brittle draught of rubble; they tell about nature, about her unrestrained firmness und disarming beauty; they mediate between her and the beholder, while not withholding the great distance that has forced itself between him and the uncharted territory that is left on earth.

Simone Nieweg
Simone Nieweg is a photographer of gardens and landscapes. Her work, as it has manifested itself over the past thirty years, knows no other interest. At the same time, a certain serenity hovers over her pictures. In them, nature seems entirely focused on itself. One immediately notices that human beings are absent. They are not physically present, and their vehicles, buildings, and the noice of their machines are likewise absent. Trees, plants, and the broader structures of the landscape are conceived as tranquil phenomena sufficient unto themselves.
