LISA WASSMANN

1Posted by Guillaume | July 23, 2010

West Berlin Gallery proudly presents LISA WASSMANN’s first solo show in Berlin from August 5th to September 5th. The exhibition will give a first general overview of the photographer’s works executed over the last three years.

As a photographer, LISA WASSMANN earnestly oscillates between precision relating to crafts and cool digital aesthetics, hence creating a subtle interaction motif between the two aspects. Both Berlin club culture and unbelievable landscapes are featured in a selection of favourite shots that she has chosen for the show. This selection of mostly unpublished photos, specifically represents the artist’s perspective towards her work; and questions whether showing inner feelings has got a price and discusses how to convey intimate feelings into the open. In preparation for the exhibition, LISA WASSMANN worked on the principle of representation on several levels: the photographs alone are not at the core of the show; their limited reproducibility and framing techniques restored her digital photography prints to ‘pictures’ in the traditional meaning of the term. The unique pieces are developed in such a way, acquiring a clear delimitation to the outside and bear a tense interrelation between tradition and present.

The photographs have been issued as a limited edition of three copies each. Framed pictures will be only available as unique pieces. Read more

Lisa Wassmann, Ghosttown photographies available in our shop

1Posted by Guillaume | July 20, 2010

As you might have heard already we are really pride to present Lisa Wassmann’s very first solo show in Berlin this august. Save the date for the vernissage on August 5th!

We have already produced a first serie of photographies that were shown a couple weeks ago at BRIGHT. Those come from Lisa’s works in Las Vegas earlier this year and have not been published anywhere else so far.

” I came to Vegas with thoughts of a sparkling, crowded, glorious sinful city, to colourful lights. But all I saw where empty streets. I met a philipine priest and an old man in a wheel chair driving in the middle of the highway. I put myself in disguise as to be someone else. I walked around in Sin City in the middle of the desert and then on the last day it snowed. In the desert / me and my holy friend.” Lisa Wassmann

We would like to extend an invitation to the opening of its great summer vibe show Welcome to the Peachbeach presenting works from the Berlin-based design and Street Art collective.

Peachbeach is a fraternity composed of three reconverted bad boys who decided to settle in Berlin and enjoy its vibrancy and dazzling cosmopolitan colours. The three young artists aim at fusing their different backgrounds and creative approaches in one edgy mix of strong illustration, sensitive typography style and an ironic vision of social etiquette and games.
