Die Architektur des Beweises

galerie wieland is pleased to present a solo exhibition of the work of Frank Hülsbömer, whose new photographs show views of auditoriums and seminar rooms at Berlin's Charité Hospital and Humboldt University. The series of photographic diptychs, executed at these two prestigious institutions, reveal the patina of age characteristic of such well-worn public spaces that serve elevated social and functional purposes. The dispassionate shots draw the viewer's attention to certain minor details of the seemingly abandoned halls, whose formal neutrality is quietly disturbed by only a few human traces, such as the partially wiped out traces of chalk on a blackboard.
The coupled photographs always show a particular space from two opposing angles: one from the point of view of the teacher, the other from that of the students. Thus, the space where knowledge is presented and revealed is juxtaposed with,and kept separate from, the space where knowledge is received and absorbed. In their visual formality and structure, the diptychs allude to medieval altarpieces, pictorial objects equally associated with places of shared and communal perception and the offering of information. The public reception of knowledge, whether disseminated via a lecturer or revealed by a pastor, is always a matter of mediation.

Frank Hülsbömer, born 1968 in Münster, lives and works in Berlin, Warsaw and Paris.
