Visions of Time
Andrew Wagner
Tagged: Photography
Over the past ten years, Andrew Wagner (b. Burgstadt, 1980; lives and works in Berlin) has created a remarkable oeuvre. The young photographer seizes on (lighting) situations that exist in reality and takes time exposures to create pictures full of painterly poetry. The camera enables him to expand our visual perception and the pictorial context. Wagner’s photographs reveal the process of artistic engagement with the contradictory quality of human existence: between a profound sense of connection to nature and the culture of industrial progress. The first monograph on Andre Wagner’s work with essays by Thomas Bauer-Friedrich and Wibke von Bonin is published in conjunction with his participation in the 55. Biennale di Venezia.
