PERCEPTIONS
People in American Photography
The summer exhibition of Fabian & Claude Walter Galerie can be visited by appointment until 29 August 2020.
PERCEPTIONS features works by American photographers, which concern themselves with issues like human contact, corporeality, intimacy as well as fragility. The photographs explore problems of everyday topics and situations, the necessity of which are made clear to us only at times marked by restrictions, distancing, and isolation. PERCEPTIONS aims to draw attention to the importance of the relationship between people – regardless of origin or skin colour. With its choice of high-quality vintage prints from private collections PERCEPTIONS outlines time travelling through 20th century history of photography.
The exhibition presents vintage prints from private collections by Imogen Cunningham (1883-1976), Saul Leiter (1923-2013), Jill Freedman (1939-2019), Duane Michals (*1932), Jerry Uelsmann (*1934), Nan Goldin (*1953), Sally Mann (*1951), Jock Sturges (*1947), Herb Ritts (1952-2002) and Jack Pierson (*1960). In Addition, a selection of estate prints by Vivian Maier (1926-2009) are shown.
Please note the special opening hours due to the current situation.
Friday: 2 — 6.30 pm, Saturday: 11 am — 4 pm and by appointment
