Holger Niehaus Birne Helene
The book Birne Helene (French Desert) by German photographer Holger Niehaus gives you the same feeling as walking through a high standard architectural building in the thirties! The scale, the dimensions of rooms and corridoors breath the elegant white of the rooms. The white pages in the book become almost as important as the beautiful still lifes which are reminding us to Morandi, Kandinsky and even Donald Judd. Composition and colour in close harmony.... - Exposition
Der Zweite Blick. The Second Glance Au deuxième regard Второй взгляд Zeitgenössische Fotografie Contemporary photography
Artistic photography is far removed from just imaging the real world. The emotionally „naive „ first glance that trusts the documentary character of a photo, has been widely made obselete by technical and artistic developments. The photo is able to create surreal or virtual worlds, to produce visual angles, that have no adequate equivalent in the empirical world. This is the moment for the „Zweiten Blick“ (second glance), that leans towards the principles of design and method, that can unsettle our seeing habits, irritate or intensify, and will, undoubtably give our visual perception in its rational function towards realisation, a jolt. The artistic quality of photography can rarely be ascertained at first glence – the aesthetic intensity and sensitivity of the artist demand extra attenti... - Exposition
Holger Niehaus - Birne Helene
Holger Niehaus (b. Nordhorn, Germany, 1975) takes us to a strange world, where plants, fruit and animals congregate in serene still-lifes. Niehaus masterfully interweaves the traditional still-life with minimalist forms, so that every photograph requires a second glance to see what is actually there. It then becomes clear that the objects have been attacked with an apple corer, paint or scissors. This young photographer's first solo exhibition also includes his choice of pieces from the Gemeentemuseum's extensive collection that have inspired his own work.
Holger Niehaus' photographs are based on the classic still-life. By manipulating the subject or the photograph, however, Niehaus ensures that it fits into his perfectible world. In interfering with the subject - be it a plant, animal or something else - Niehaus dest... - Exposition
Verticals Holger Niehaus
The first group exhibition in the new Van Zoetendaal gallery at Oude Schans 67f opened to the public. Entitled 'Verticals', the exhibition will comprise a selection of works by a number of artists attached to the gallery plus photographs from Van Zoetendaal's own collection. The lay-out of the exhibition will be subject to constant change as works are replaced and new ones added. Visitors to the newly designed website will be able to view the exhibition via floor plans and installation overviews, and can even zoom in on individual works.
In addition to the group shows at the Oude Schans gallery, frequent solo exhibitions will be held in a new 'space' on the gallery's website: a large rectangular gallery 16m long x 12m wide x 5m high, to be known as Artist's Territory. Artists attached to the gallery and invited guest ...
