Under the title "THE WORLD IS A BOOK AND THOSE WHO DO NOT TRAVEL READ ONLY ONE PAGE." (St. Augustinus), Bernheimer Fine Art will present a special group exhibition on the subject travel, nature and landscape photography. On display will be photographs by seven artists who recorded unique works on all continents of the world with their cameras. For the first time in Lucerne we will be showing photographs of the Italian artist Mirella Ricciardi, born in Kenya in 1931. Inspired by the surroundings of her early childhood on Lake Naivasha she photographed the six tribes of Kenya already in the 1950s and 1960s. In 1971 she published a collection of her iconic photographs in her award-winning picture book Vanishing Africa. |

The German artist Jan C. Schlegel is fascinated by tribal cultures in Africa and Asia as well. The inexorable changes prompted the photographer to portray the people in order to preserve the traditional ways of life in his pictures. The exhibition further presents unique works by Sebastian Copeland, depicting the eternal ice of the North and South poles, Silke Lauffs' and Michael Kenna’s pictoresque landscape photographs reaching from Europe to India, South Asia and South Africa as well as fascinating nature photography from many parts of the world by the German photographer Mat Hennek. Nick Brandt's inimitable photography captures the African wildlife in all its glory. His iconic portraits of the majestic animals express a deferential sensitivity, otherwise solely reserved for human depictions. Last but not least this unique image language makes him stand out amongst other artists. |
