VEDUTAS & LANDSCAPES - Elger Esser
Elger Esser produces photographs of landscapes and buildings that exude the tranquility and romantic spirit of the early 19th century. His pictures of the sea, marshes, rivers or city panoramas also seem to come from that century, were it not for the fact that they are most certainly taken in color, a medium in which Elger Esser feels at home. The pale, almost faded hues Esser aspires to create draw us in as if they were a vague memory, acting like a nostalgic magnet taking us back to an ever-distant past. Yet Esser's paintings are the product of recent years, and are undoubtedly very contemporary.
