Passion
Johannes Schwartz presents a new series of photographs, entitled Passion. Over the last year, he has photographed a recently abandoned house. The result is a series of film-like moments in a sober interior that seems unchanged since the 1950s. The furniture and objects are a reflection of the personality of someone who lived in the house for many years.
In all of his series’, Johannes Schwartz works according to a fixed formula, in which the subject is first determined and subsequently explored in depth. Although his interior photographs are registrations of an existing situation as he found it, they give the impression of being meticulously staged arrangements.
