Pictured are convergences of intense life styles as well as erotic relationships or staged encounters, ranging from ambiguous to passionate to explicit. |

Artists like Nan Goldin (*1953), Larry Clark (*1943) or André Gelpke (*1947) document life on societal peripheries, even if those margins run straight through our hip neighborhoods and well-to-do suburbs, or through our circles of friends and families. Other photographers, like Erwin Olaf (*1959) or Roshan Adhihetty (*1990), confront us with lives and passions outside of what seems commonly accepted. |

But the exhibition, curated by Daniel Blochwitz in cooperation with Fabian & Claude Walter Galerie, also includes works that show sensual and calm moments of togetherness and intimacy, as with Imogen Cunningham (1883-1976) or Saul Leiter (1923-2013). In addition, there will be works by John Dugdale (*1960), Sissi Farassat (*1969), Jill Freedman (*1939), Duane Michals (*1932), Herb Ritts (1952-2002), Andres Serrano (*1950), Christian Vogt (*1946) and Todd Walker (1917-1998). Concurrent with the exhibition "Encounters", the show "Darkroom Surrealist" by Jerry Uelsmann will still be on view in the gallery’s cabinet until April 29. |
