And there is something in this tenderness that makes me – Brigitte Lustenberger

2021

About the Item

Brigitte LUSTENBERGER (*1969, Switzerland) And there is something in this tenderness that makes me want to live, 2021 From the series 'An Apparition Of Memory' C-print 100 x 100 cm (39 3/8 x 39 3/8 in.) Edition of 5, plus 2 AP; Ed. no. 1/5 print only Born in Zurich, Switzerland, Brigitte studied at Zurich University and received her MA in Social and Photo History in 1996. In the following years she established herself as an fine art photographer. She moved to New York and received her MFA in Fine Art Photography and Related Media at Parsons The New School of Design in 2007. The main issues in her works lie in her interest in the study of the gaze, the interplay between absence and presence in a photographic image, and the fact that the reading of a photograph is most often triggered by a collective memory. She explores the media itself and its close connection to themes like decay, memory, death and transitoriness. Brigitte Lustenberger has shown nationally and internationally in both solo and group shows. She had Solo Shows at the Museée de l’Elysée in Lausanne/Switzerland, at Walter Keller’s Scalo Gallery in Zurich and New York, at Le Maillon in Strasbourg/France, Kunstkeller Gallery in Bern, Photoforum PasquArt in Bienne. Her works have been part of group shows in the Kunsthalle Bern, Kunsthalle Luzern, Art Cologne, Centro Internationale de Fotografia in Milan. She was awarded the Grand Prize Winner PDNedu, the Golden Light Award, Shots/Corbis Student Photographer of the Year, Prix de Photoforum PasquArt, The Photo Review Comeptition, Selection Voies Off at Arles, and others. She received fellowships for Cairo and Maloja and was awarded with the prestigious swiss Landis&Gyr Residency in 2013. In the same year she was awarded for the second time (after 2002) the Photo Award of the Canton Bern. – An Apparition Of Memory Under a mantle of lime and salt crystals, the flowers seem to be preserved for eternity. For a brief moment we believe we can stop time and preserve the beauty and fragility of life. My process-oriented work reflects the fragility of the ecological balance of our planet, questions our concept of transience, but also poetically shows the beauty and tenderness of withering and decay. – Art, Photography, Contemporary, Color, Flowers, Still Life, Flora, Memory, Nature, Detail, Structure

    Erik MADIGAN HECK (*1983, United States) Not Titled Yet, 2022 Chomogenic print Sheet 152.4 x 101.6 cm (60 x 40 in.) Edition of 9 plus 2 artist's proofs (#1/9) Print only Originally from Excelsior, Minnesota, Erik Madigan Heck (*1983) is one of the youngest and most promising American fashion photographers of the contemporary art scene. In his relatively short career the artist developed a personal way of looking at fashion, as Nathalie Herschdorfer underlines in her essay "Minimal and pure: Erik Madigan Heck fashion photographs". His work is characterized by a clear and distinctive treatment of colours and patterns, which makes it unequivocal. "Heck’s photographs push the concept to new limits, creating imagery that goes beyond traditional fashion photography. Meticulously constructed and enhanced with bright colours, blurring the line between the clothes and the background, his images play with this idea of ‘future’ silhouettes". – Nathalie Herschdorfer In 2017 Heck published his first monograph with Thames & Hudson and Abrams Books titled 'Old Future'. In his 'Old Future' series Madigan Heck explores the intersection of photography and painting as he borrows from and bends the genres of fashion photography, landscape painting and portraiture. Madigan Heck is a regular contributor to The New York Times...
