until 16.05. | #1870ARTatBerlin | Photo Edition Berlin shows from 24th February 2018 the exhibition”Staged Photographs 1983-1995″ by the Berlin artist Matthias Leupold.
Matthias Leupold is not a documentary photographer, however “realistic” his pictures may appear. The reality of his pictures is always staged.
Matthias Leupold, Russisches Glück, 1986
Vintage Silbergelatine Baryth Abzug, 175 x 100 cm
Born in East Berlin in 1959, he lived there in the district of Prenzlauer Berg until his emigration to the western part of the city in 1986, where he has been working on pictures since 1983, staged with actors and directed counter worlds to everyday life in East Germany. His research and examination of their norms and conventions led him to look for images of “reality behind reality” and topics that lie outside public and propagated self-assurance.
Matthias Leupold, Bereit zur Verteidigung der Heimat
Serie: Fahnenappell, 1988-89, Vintage Silbergelatine Baryth Abzug, 135 x 100 cm
In the exhibition we show a selection of individual works of the staged photographs from 1983-1995, as well as the series “Fahnenappell” and “Die Schönheit der Frauen”.
