Frankfurt : J Henry Fair, It’s An Abstract World

Preview

Alp Galleries presents until April 30th, 2016 It’s An Abstract World, an exhibition by German photographer J Henry Fair.

This series of photographs walks a fine line between abstraction and representation, simultaneously speaking of the influence of the Bauhaus school of photography and arguing that a photograph can be an even more compelling abstract picture than painting. This irony is quickly followed by that of creating beautiful art from detritus. A photograph is, in some sense, always about something, and though the “subject matter” of these photographs is toxic waste, they are abstract-expressionist works, and can therefore be appreciated either on a purely aesthetic level, or as environmental statement.
