In her latest series "Übergang" ('transition'), Leipzig-based artist Grit Schwerdtfeger, a master student of Joachim Brohm, explores the floating and unprotected state of the transitory - be it scenic-spatial, temporal or biographical transitions. In addition, she will present her work Das ganze Wasser (The Whole Water), in which a powerful river is brought to a standstill by photographic means.

The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue with photographs by Grit Schwerdtfeger and an essay by Oliver Vogel (English/German).

"Part of what is conveyed immediately is a kind of modesty, no, tranquility; an awareness of the limited possibilities of all expression, as if the attempt to represent the whole world in an image would result in a shadow-play of what we are capable of. [...] 'Übergang' is all perspectives at once; it is the time we have, no more. It is the one moment, a moment in passing, a moment in transition. 'Übergang' describes one such circle in the most amazing and at the same time circumspect manner, and in doing so presents the art of photography at its full potential."
- Oliver Vogel
