But really it conceals a wealth of meanings. Emptiness ranges from abandoned and left-behind spaces, undefined areas left to their own devices, to historical voids which have become memorials. But it also encompasses planned and designed emptiness, open spaces in dense urban contexts, the aura of exhibition spaces, and the grandeur of prestigious buildings. | | | | | | James-Simon-Galerie, Berlin, 2019 © Andreas Gehrke | | | | Andreas Gehrke places the aesthetics of emptiness at the centre of his photographic work. He conceives his spatial perspectives as portraits and even finds a concrete counterpart in assemblages devoid of people. In the exhibition "Räume – Espaces" he shows the juxtaposition and entanglement of abundance and deprivation, order and chaos, presence and absence – as well as conception and coincidence – as interconnections of our built environment. Over three chapters, the exhibition dedicates itself to various states and connotations of emptiness. It shows spaces left behind and undefined areas undergoing a process of conversion, as well as planned and designed emptiness, the aura of exhibition spaces, and the grandeur of prestigious buildings. | | | | | | Ohne Titel, (MoMa New York), 2019 © Andreas Gehrke | | | | Andreas Gehrke (*1975) is a photographer and publisher whose work has been exhibited at the German Architecture Museum, Frankfurt, and PS1, New York, among others.
