FRANKFURT.- With a comprehensive selection of works PASSIONATELY – FFF MEMBERS SHOW reveals the desires and interests that the members of the Fotografie Forum Frankfurt (FFF) have personally for the medium. In an open call process members of the FFF were asked to send their photos to be juried for an exhibition celebrating the 40th anniversary of FFF. The spectrum of FFF members is wide -- passionate professionals, beginners to highly accomplished photographers, collectors, teachers, artists, professors, office workers, designers and architects, journalists and writers, scientists and historians, craftsmen, philanthropists and students, doctors, lawyers, bankers, musicians, and others. This exhibition is dedicated to all those who participated – over 200 members -- for their passion for photography and their commitment to supporting FFF. Original works from the juried short list are part of the wall and room installation. In addition, numerous series and individual photographs of all participants are displayed on large scale monitors ubtil January 5, 2025.
Since the 1990s the FFF has organised an educational programme with workshops and lectures by world renowned photographers, including Martin Parr in 1999. Many of the photographers in PASSIONATELY have attended courses at what is now the FFF ACADEMY. Similar to our workshop themes like portraiture, street photography, the body, fashion, abstraction and environment, the exhibited works reveal how diversly we respond to places and others.
How that many FFF members interact with the urban stage of Frankfurt is just one example of the stories on view. Barbara Staubach created an ironic farewell in images to the Technisches Rathaus before its demise more than ten years ago; founding member Morag Hall has made comparative quotidian street-life observations in Great Britain and in Frankfurt; while photojournalist Ferhat Bouda’s current work deals with the many people who live and sleep on the streets of Germany’s financial centre. PASSIONATELY presents a photographic universe with multifaceted perspectives.
The exhibition was juried by Andrea Horvay, communications specialist, co-curator FFF; Alexandra Lechner photographer, founder of Darmstädter Tage der Fotografie; and Ute Noll, picture editor DU magazine, founder UNO-Art Space. PASSIONATELY was curated by Andrea Horvay and Celina Lunsford.
