The exhibition RÈTINA (before the brain) may be considered a hommage to photography as such. The title, the installative presentation of ten black and white photographs, and a hand-made leporello edition accompanying the series, originate to Carlo Battisti [*1945, IT].
In addition to Battisti’s installative approach, the exhibition exemplifies the specific position of photography with one work by each of ten selected artists, whose artistic focus is generally more or less centred on different media and techniques.
Here, we present works from six series and editions featured in this exhibition, on behalf of the following artists:
Alain Biltereyst [BE] · Monika Brandmeier [DE] · Daniela Comani [IT] · Carsten Sievers [DE]
