Arno Schidlowski: Jasmund | Der Sonne Mond

Jan 10 – Apr 12, 2026

Opening Friday, January 9, 2026, 7-9 pm
The artist will be present

Photographer Arno Schidlowski (b. 1975) presents two series of works at the Alfred Ehrhardt Stiftung, Jasmund and Der Sonne Mond, which offer different approaches to landscape. His exclusively analog and handmade photographs are the result of drawn-out working processes and an intensive engagement with nature and light. Jasmund is dedicated to a frequently observed location shaped by culture, while Der Sonne Mond evokes an inner landscape that cannot be pinned down to any specific location. In both groups of works, Schidlowski draws on strategies of Romanticism, transforming them into a precise, contemplative observation of nature aligned with the tradition of Alfred Ehrhardt.

Alfred Ehrhardt: Ernst Barlach Photography and Film 1948/49

Jan 11 – Sep 20, 2026

Alfred Ehrhardt Haus Strobelplatz 2, 07819 Triptis

Opening Hours: Sundays 2-5 pm

Born in Triptis, Alfred Ehrhardt (1901-1984) was one of the few Bauhaus students who earned his living exclusively as a filmmaker and photographer. In 1948, with the support of the British occupation authorities, he founded his own cultural film production company in Hamburg. His first post-war works include a film about the Bordesholm Altar in Schleswig and a two-part cultural film about the life and work of the German sculptor, draughtsman and writer Ernst Barlach (1870-1938). At the time, Ehrhardt was regarded as the “most important German post-war cultural film creator”.
