Helga und Victor von Brauchitsch Sichtweite
Helga and Victor von Brauchitsch favor the alienating quality of black-and-white photography; they traverse mysterious cities and landscapes, uncovering surreal images and capturing things that are sinking, traces and strange signs. A severe poetry speaks to us from the photographs of Helga von Brauchitsch. The clarity of line and contrast, always embedded in a nuanced setting of shades of gray, underlines the enigma of what is hidden, a quality immanent in every one of her pictures. In the work of Victor von Brauchitsch, it is the shadows that come to the fore. Shadow plays and shadowy beings enliven the images; the photographer needs light only to make darkness visible. These two high-quality slipcased volumes provide the first comprehensive overview of the work of this photographer couple.
