Known for her mastery across various genres, Klemm also excels in landscape photography.
This exhibition features around thirty of her landscape portraits from Germany and around the world — from the Allgäu to Lake Plön, from the Mongolian steppe to the Iguazú waterfalls. Each photograph, printed by the artist as a silver gelatin print, showcases her skillful composition and deep connection to the landscapes she captures. | | | | | | Barbara Klemm Mongolei, 1992 Silbergelatineabzug von eigener Hand 30 x 40 cm © Barbara Klemm | | | | "Karl Friedrich Schinkel, Caspar David Friedrich, Georg Friedrich Kersting (...) gaze upon us from Barbara Klemm's landscape images. The German Romanticism, with its painting and graphics, and its solace, gravity, and abysses, reappears here in a new aesthetic quality." - Péter Nádas | | | | | | Barbara Klemm Iguazú Wasserfall, Brasilien, 2011 Silbergelatineabzug von eigener Hand 40 x 30 cm © Barbara Klemm | | | | Barbara Klemm is considered one of the most important photographers in contemporary Germany.
