Gerald Berghammer, Kill your darlings. In our eyes, the world is upside down. Light reflected
from the outside world is redirected by the lens and an inverted image is formed on the retina.
Drilling a small hole in a dark box has the same effect. If you then put a film or sensor on the
back wall, you have a working camera.
The Kill your Darlings exhibition concentrates on this basic element of photography – the
camera obscura – and at the same time does not permit any reduction to one art genre.
In this context, Ismael Picker-Schiebel creates an expansive installation that includes photography,
drawing and sculpture. He picks up contours from a certain perspective and uses wire to form a
structure from spatial aspects. The seemingly graphic sculptural imitation of the shop portal
hangs from the ceiling. If the perspective of the viewer changes, the form, which has a specific
angle of view, degenerates. For pictures, these three-dimensional objects are flattened and
photographed. A stroll through sculpture and photography to finally hang on the wall in the
thinnest version of itself, looking like a drawing. With this process, Ismael Picker-Schiebel
outsmarts individual art genres, the differentiation of which he feels to be outdated anyway.
The decisive moments of the respective medium are precisely captured in a common appearance,
the genres are gently inscribed in the works.
