Christian Voigt
Admont Abbey Library

2021

About the Item

Admont Abbey Library Admont, Austria, 2021 126 x 222 cm Edition size: 12 Light jet, exposure on high glossy paper and aluminum dibond Framed with tulipwood, distance framing, and a UV 99 museum glass. The Admont Abbey Library near Vienna is one of the great works of art from the late Baroque period in Europe where different genres of art (architecture, frescoes, sculptures, writings & printed works) have merged into a unity. The library comprises around 200,000 volumes, whose most precious treasures are the more than 1,400 manuscripts (from the 8th century) and the 530 incunabula (early prints up to the year 1500). Christian Voigt is the first artist to be allowed to photograph the Admont Abbey Library after its extensive renovation and after the complete return of the historic book collection. Artist Bio: Born in Munich, Germany, Christian Voigt lives and works in Hamburg and The South of France. His current studio is situated in Hamburg.Christian Voigt works with large-format cameras, both digital and analogue. He experiments with new camera techniques and makes the best use of the digital medium. In the museum edition, his large-format pictures can measure as much as eight meters in width. But his strictly limited editions also come in sizes which customers and collectors can hang on walls of more modest sizes. Christian Voigt has developed a language capable of telling new stories. He continually works to refine a pictorial idiom, the stories he wants to tell, the feelings he convey. This is visible in his pictures; Landscape and architecture are his principal areas of interest, but he also does portraits and nudes. The travels associated with his projects and places call for concentration, for the ability to get to grips with people, with their history and their religion. ‘My pictures are created with the camera, not on the computer,’ he says, with a reference to the complicated technology and processing that goes into his creations. ‘But without the computer technology of today, the pictures couldn’t be crafted into their final form.’Solo shows and Art Fairs have been staged in Basel, Hamburg, New York, Los Angeles, London, Saint Tropez, Amsterdam, Madrid.
