Dieter Nuhr – About the disappearance of images

Preview February 4, 2024, 3-6 p.m.
Exhibition duration: February 4th – March 16th, 2024

The Düsseldorf artist Dieter Nuhr is showing his fifth solo exhibition at Galerie Obrist. While the photographic aspects of his artistic work were previously the focus, new elements are now being added: Nuhr works with digital brushes, combining them with photographic material, patterns and structures, he paints with data. Layer by layer, images emerge from photographs that seem like paintings, an intention that also emerged in Nuhr’s purely photographic works. In the new pictures, their own disappearance is now recorded, so to speak. Just as the memory of an event or a place gradually slips away from our memory and actually only exists in the snapshot from back then, Nuhr’s pictures also show us how an image that was actually captured and perceived disappears before our eyes and merges indivisible with other picture elements. A text from the Osthaus Museum in Hagen says: “What is photographed is lost, only to be re-constructed in the painting process. Images slip away and re-form themselves.”

Dieter Nuhr – Until 7 March

[Not a valid template]

Obrist Gallery is happy to announce the fourth solo exhibition by Dieter Nuhr. Most of the shown pictures were taken in 2019 and are now presented fo the first time. Since the recent exhibition two years ago Nuhr went on long-distance journeys for several times, and made his subtle discoveries in Georgia and Iran among others. In his photographs Nuhr opens windows to a graceful and strange world, which in the end remains inapproachable, and here he has developed a very personal and recognizable form of expression in his pictures.

Obrist Gallery is happy to announce the third solo exhibition by Dieter Nuhr. Since the recent exhibition two years ago Nuhr went on long-distance journeys for several times, and made his subtle discoveries in Moldavia, Georgia and Mexico among others, like the East German province. In big sized photographs Nuhr opens windows to a graceful and strange world, which in the end remains inapproachable, and here he has developed a very personal and recognizable form of expression in his pictures.

Exhibition Dieter Nuhr

5305

Gallery Obrist is happy to announce the second solo exhibition by Dieter Nuhr, called “Foreign Terrain“.
While the artist is known to many as a comedian and, with that, for his use of words, the medium of photography allows for a different form of expression. He studied fine arts at the former Folkwang School in Essen and has ever since been invested in photography alongside his stage performances; he understands himself as a multimedia artist.
The works in “Foreign Terrain II“ show landscape motifs from various areas of the world but through the selected frame one is unable to geographically localize the scenes. In his photographs Nuhr is interested in places and moments where movement and standstill overlap: a glacier which is covered with linens to prevent it from melting or a cloud formation almost completely covering a mountain area. Not a specific location is relevant to the artist but instead the form and structure of a certain view.
Dieter Nuhr prints his motifs on canvas which inevitably results in a comparison with painting: the matte surface does not show a reflection und therefore annuls the boundary between viewer and image. The contours seem softer and bring the viewer closer in contact with the atmospheric nature. The viewer becomes the photographer’s accomplice both in observing and in experiencing.
With that Dieter Nuhr takes part in the ongoing photographic discourse about individual observation, perception and documentation. The choice of the frame is both an autonomous as well as an influenced decision in dialogue with the landscape that he visits.
An exhibition booklet has been published.

“In this companion to 2006’s Painting People, art critic Charlotte Mullins explores the latest wave of figurative art in the contemporary marketplace, both celebrating individual artists and contemplating why figuration has become popular yet again. […] Figurative art is a broad subject, but Mullins’s astute overview pairs powerfully with the selected images, offering a perceptive argument for the enduring range and power of figuration into the 21st century.”

Exhibition with Dieter Nuhr

[Not a valid template]

“Each form has its own means of expression. With language I can be ironic, but through the pictorial language the world seems more serious to me.”, says well-known humorist Dieter Nuhr about the two great creative poles in his life. Beyond the stage world he devotes his time to photography. His work does not represent a collection of travel impressions , instead he offers an insight that moves away from the everyday life perspective and into foreign countries and cultures. However, in doing so, he never illustrates the obvious beauty or a romanticized version of an exotic place. Nuhrs photography depicts the foreign, the detail, offering an exemplification of the „big picture“. Furthermore, Nuhr explores architectural structures between the antagonism of inside and outside spaces. These depictions are often characterized by a striking surface structure that is marked by an almost haptic-seeming impasto on the relief-like façade, which developed over the years and thus have become cultural seismographs and authentic witnesses of time.
