June 2022
On June 28th Artist Dorothee Billard together with curator Susanne Greinke ceremoniously handed over a copy of the artist’s book “Verschwinden” to the Kupferstichkabinett of the Dresden State Art Collections. This book also contains a work of mine.
My contribution to this artist’s book shows a huge statue of Stalin, which disappeared from the East Berlin cityscape in 1961 together with the commemoration of Stalin. For one afternoon in 2018, it appeared to me like a miracle for a few hours in its original place in connection with the exhibition “The Red God”. My entry for the book shows this re-siting and re-disappearance.

Pinhole camera photographs by Falk Weiß
Sometimes blurred images from a camera without a lens show us something that pin-sharp images conceal from us. The photographs exhibited here were taken in Berlin over the last three years. The camera is approx. 50 cm deep and has a pinhole aperture of approx. 1 cm. The photographs were taken on paper negatives measuring 18×24 cm. The exposure time was usually several minutes.
