Roland Angst Only-Photography, Berlin
Guardian of Time. He creates space in his photographs for a very personal kind of solitude
Guardian of Time. He initially worked predominantly as a press photographer, and as a member of the photo agency VU shot extensive reportages for Die Zeit, Stern and Der Spiegel. He gradually moved away from commissioned journalism to projects of his own, which have been the subject of numerous thematic publications and exhibitions. One of his particular interests is Europe and its history. He has been coming to Berlin regularly since 1989 to record the events and changes in the city. With minimal means and a sensitive approach he mixes colour and black-and-white photos. On his journeys through Europe he creates silent and serious images devoid of pathos. By dispensing with all forms of anecdote, he creates space in his photographs for a very personal kind of solitude. His first extensive monograph is being published to accompany the exhibition in a collectors' edition. The exhibition is part of the International Month of Photography in Berlin. Opening and presentation of our new book on friday november the 2nd, 6 to 9 pm.
