基本説明
夏の真夜中の太陽のもとで撮影された(すなわち、影がほとんど無い）グリーンランドの氷の海。北極圏をシリーズで取り続けているオラーフ・オットー・ベッカーの作品は、美的写真であると同時に正確な撮影位置を記すことで、激変する北極圏の海の観測記録となっている。
"German Photo Book Award," 2008
Taken in the clear light of the midnight sun, and therefore almost shadowless, these photographs offer breathtaking views of an untouched landscape from a remote part of our planet. Olaf Otto Becker (g*1959 in Travemünde) brings us images of overwhelming beauty, the result of his adventurous journeys in a rubber raft across the icy seas of Greenland.
Full Description
Taken in the clear light of the midnight sun, and therefore almost shadowless, these photographs offer breathtaking views of an untouched landscape from a remote part of our planet. Olaf Otto Becker (*1959 in Travemunde) brings us images of overwhelming beauty, the result of his adventurous journeys in a rubber raft across the icy seas of Greenland. Like Under the Nordic Light, his series from Iceland, the photographs possess a certain melancholy and stillness reminiscent of the grandeur of Romantic landscape painting. At the same time, the outlook of an unperturbed explorer and his recording of exact location when photographing turns them into testimonies to a time when an increasingly warm climate is precipitating the disappearance of the glaciers. In this way, the images record the artist's awe at the beauty of creation-as well as the dangers facing it. Exhibition schedule: Galerie f 5;6, Munich, April 4. - June 14, 2008
