LLLLLL artist run space proudly presents this year’s first exhibition Spare me your sanity by photographer and artist Johannes Baudrexel. The exhibition is curated by art history student Vanessa Wavrouschek. You are invited to join the Opening on Tuesday 22. Feb. starting at 5 pm and also to get to know the artist during an Artist Talk on Tuesday 01. Mar. at 5 pm.
Spare me your sanity is Johannes’s ongoing photography work which is inspired by personal impressions of a manic-depressive, demented, and later departed father. The work wants to tell about the human being of a late modern society permeated by false promises of happiness and an incessant pressure to perform. An essential part of his photography is the appropriation of private and public space for performance interludes which the artist performs by himself.
Johannes Baudrexel is a German photographer who lives and works in Vienna. He studied media design and graduated with a master’s degree in design and photography from the FH Bielefeld in Germany. Major constants of his artistic work has become a cynical view on everyday life and a passion for practising staged photography. The artist has a strong interest in creating photographic caricatures and portraits that explore and reflect social issues and trends of visual culture.
The Artist Talk will be held in German.
LLLLLL will open by appointment during the exhibition period (please register by E-Mail).
A maximum of four people at once are allowed in the showroom.
Please make sure to wear an FFP2-mask during your visit.
