Christian Werner
Everything so democratic and cool
Opening, September 04th – 5pm
A solo exhibition by photographer Christian Werner. Featuring works from his recent publication, EVERYTHING SO DEMOCRATIC AND COOL, taken between 2007 and the present day.
Familiar faces, anonymous portraits, abandoned landscapes, animals and urban spaces – Everything so democratic and cool sketches an associative collage of our collective present.
The images selected for this exhibition are drawn from various series and contexts: shots from fashion shoots, commissions for magazines and private portraits, as well as personal projects. They reveal the breadth of Werner’s work, and the vision of a gaze that is at once intimate and reserved.
Christian Werner lives and works in Berlin. In addition to his work for many national and international magazines, he focuses on long-term projects from which several books have already emerged. Christian Werner previously dealt, among other things, with the disappearance of the former Federal Republic of Germany (Stillleben BRD, Kerber Verlag 2016) and the urban flora (Die Blüten einer Stadt, Suhrkamp 2018). In 2019 his book “Los Angeles” was published by Korbinian Verlag.
