The subject of Barbara Probst's series Exposures (begun in 2000) is no less than the relation between time, perception, the photograph and reality. She uses several cameras to photograph one and the same (staged) action, event or situation from different perspectives at the same time. Then she selects and arranges them to make tableaux that are usually in several parts, or diptychs at the very least. Exposure, revelation, discovery, unmasking, the decisive moment, the 'armed' eye—Probst works her way through all these synonyms for photography in her installations. The individual parts of Exposures show unmistakably that the reconstruction of meaning, of an event or even of historical processes on the basis of photography is a virtually impossible undertaking. She reminds us of the fact that Walter Benjamin and, later, Victor Burgin wrote that photography is always accompanied by a text, whether explicit or implicit. And she also shows that omissions and contra dictions are part of photographic practice itself. Exposures demonstrates the fact that an image not only expresses something but also causes something else—an 'other' image—to disappear, precisely when both refer to the same thing or supposedly the same 'reality.' (Reinhard Braun)
