Models of Nature in Contemporary Photography

Jan 11 – Apr 26, 2020

Group exhibition curated by Dr Marie Christine Jádi with Oliver Boberg, Sonja Braas, Julian Charrière, Shirley Wegner, and Thomas Wrede

What is real and what is fake? What truths do we believe to see? Or is it all just an illusion? These questions have accompanied photography since its beginnings. Today in our contemporary media culture they play a more prominent role than ever before, and they are at the core of this exhibition, which is centered around the theme of »nature« and the imitation of the natural.

Bauhaus-Lehre in Hamburg

Nov 17, 2019 – Feb 23, 2020

Jesteburg

Curator: Hans Bunge
Kunststätte Bossard, Jesteburg

In 1930 the new director Max Sauerlandt appointed Alfred Ehrhardt and Fritz Schleifer to the Landeskunstschule in Hamburg. For the first time they were to apply their experiences gained at the Bauhaus in the classes of Josef Albers to the newly established preliminary courses in Hamburg. The faculty staff of the Landeskunstschule – among them also Johann Bossard – viewed the preliminary courses critically.
