Inspired by the city’s atmosphere, light, and architecture, German photographer Vera Lutter began experimenting with photography. To capture an immediate and direct impression of her experience, she decided to transform the room she lived in into a large pinhole camera, thereby turning the space that held her personal experience into a camera that captured an image. Through a simple pinhole instead of an optically sculpted lens, the outside world flooded the interior of the room and projected an inverted image onto the opposite wall. By exposing large-format photographic paper directly, the artist created large black-and-white images. Remaining true to her concept of honesty and minimal alteration, Véra Lutter decided to preserve the negative image and refrain from multiplying or reproducing it. This exhibition catalog features the artist’s work exhibited at the Gagosian Gallery.
