BERLIN.- Galerie Springer Berlin opened a new group exhibition LOOKS LIKE ABSTRACTION, which is dedicated to the theme of abstraction in photography. In addition to five artists from the gallery programme, the gallery has invited four guest artists to take part in the exhibition.

LOOKS LIKE ABSTRACTION explores the question of when a photograph is perceived as abstract. Was this the artist's intention from the outset? Isn't every photograph initially concrete, only to become something else, such as an abstract image, through the cropping of the picture? The tour of the exhibition answers some of these questions, but also leaves plenty of room for free flight of thought and emotion.

The presentation is divided into two sections. In the first section, the gallery shows photographs that have their origins in architecture; in the second section, nature provides the basis for the works presented. The chronological arc spans from the 1960s to the present day in 2024.

The guest artist is the Japanese photographer Natsoumi, who studied art history at the Université de Paris and now lives with her family in Miyagi, Japan. Her works shown in the exhibition were created this year.

The artist Stefanie Seufert is also a guest. She lives and works in Berlin. Her works have been shown in numerous national and international exhibitions (Berlinsche Galerie, Eskenazi Museum of Art Bloomington, Louisville, Penumbra Foundation NYC and many more).

The sculptural works in the exhibition were created in 2016

Janos Frecot is a photo historian, author and was curator and head of the photography collection at the Landesmuseum Berlinische Galerie from 1978 to 2002. As a photographer, he created a Berlin series in the 1960s, from which we are showing a small selection of works.

The artist Peter Ruehle is represented with photography-based works from his Colorland series.

From the gallery programme the exhibition presents new works by Maria Jauregui Ponte, Loredana Nemes and Anna Szprynger as well as photographs by Ingar Krauss and Edward Burtynsky.
