Summer Loves
This exhibition is based on the idea of 'infatuations' that can affect both photographers and exhibition curators.

Rob Nypels - Only Gaze a While Longer
For several years now, photographer Rob Nypels has been living and working in the Auvergne, located in France's Massif Central. In these carefully chosen surroundings, his vision of landscape as a primarily personal domain arrived at the form and expression that he sought. His nature photographs of the Central Massif are images of intense beauty.
They comprise not only reflections on the unusual quality of this landscape, but also on the state of affairs with respect to landscape photography.

The publication has been made possible by the H+F Collection....
