RETROSPECTIVE: TEN YEARS – 2021
2021 · SOLO EXHIBITION
SILVERFINEART Gallery · Vienna, Austria
Retrospective: Ten Years was a solo exhibition by Austrian fine art photographer Gerald Berghammer, presented at SILVERFINEART Gallery in Vienna. Celebrating a decade of artistic development, the exhibition reflected Berghammer's distinctive approach to minimalist black-and-white fine art photography.
Bringing together selected works from his photographic practice, the retrospective explored the relationship between light, form, space and time. Atmospheric landscapes, carefully balanced compositions and the deliberate use of negative space revealed an artistic vision defined by clarity, stillness and visual reduction.
The exhibition highlighted the development of Berghammer's photographic language, shaped by his experience with analogue photography, long exposures and precise tonal control. Natural and architectural subjects were transformed into quiet, contemplative compositions, emphasising their essential forms and timeless character.
Retrospective: Ten Years marked an important milestone in Berghammer's artistic career, offering a reflection on the principles that continue to define his fine art photography.
