BERLIN.- Evelyn Hofer and Reinhart Wolf both famous photographers of their time united by the technique of dye transfer printing made by Nino Mondhe. There is a lot about this special printing procedure one can tell about. The fascinating brilliance, density of color and real presence affect the viewers deeply whilst looking at the exhibits. It is incomparable to other printing technology.
Dye Transfer Prints are made in an elaborate procedure within an art workshop creating color separations in each layer. Every print is made with manual craftsmanship and is a unique piece of artistic creation. Thus every print is a unicate itself. The Studio Mondhe is one of the few global specialists who master this technique. Nino Mondhe has printed the images of the most important international photographers in the second half of the 20th Century. Whilst doing that he became legend himself. William Eggleston and Irving Penn owe their appreciation not least to his method of printing.
Architecture & Interior The world photographed on the large format camera is carefully observed and masterfully interpreted. Reinhart Wolf's photographs show urban spaces as we expect them to see in hollywood franchises. Evelyn Hofer's photographs show Architecture in relation to it's natural surrounding. It is a special promise to show both a female or male view of the world.
In this exhibition highlights in the history of photography are united. One Important part of the exhibition is the iconic image of the "Flat Iron Building, New York City". Even though this building probably belongs to the frequently most photographed objects Reinhart Wolf's interpretation taken in 1979 is unsurpassed to present day.
