We are pleased to be able to inform you about an exhibition by one of our internationally active photographers, which is ultimately also of historical interest.
Andre Pirrwitz, born in 1963, spent his student years in the Ukraine, which is also where the majority of the works shown in Strasbourg come from, which were essentially taken between 2007 and 2010. His pictures almost exclusively tell stories from another time, actually an in-between time populated by ghosts, a reflection on decay and chaos, with which he transfers the collapse into a poetic vision.
(from the blurb of the exhibiting gallery, La pierre large (c).

"AMNESIES takes us on the trail of Andrej Pirrwitz, into a universe on the verge of disappearing, into ruins, into abandoned and silent spaces where ghostly presences echo. A delicate and fragile universe in which the poetics of ruins are exhibited on a large scale." [quoted by Bénédicte Bach & Benjamin Kiffel ]

they discuss together their exhibition "sur le fil du rasoir" [ "on the razor's edge" ] at Nicole Buck's gallery on the basis of the exhibited works . . .

They juxtapose their technique as well as their creative ideas, comparing and contrasting them, and thus offer a deep insight into their creative world.

Starting with the tiny creatures that are inaccessible to the naked eye and visible through the drawing, the material basis is created for a video installation that owes its content to a temporary life in the river.
