When a small gallery dedicates a thematic exhibition to a specific genre, such as portrait photography in this case, it is no coincidence. Some of the gallery artists dedicate their work to portrait photography, such as Stefan Thiel or the guest artists Katja Flint and Andreas Fux, who have already appeared several times. Other gallery artists use the medium of photography as the basis for their actual work, such as Susanne Pomrehn or Nataly Hocke. Henrik U. Müller goes his own way with his 'experimental' photography. Gerda Schütte left classical photography a long time ago, but is still a photographer. Since the advent of the digital camera, she has only worked with the photogram, the original form of photography. How can this specific medium be used to make an artistic contribution to the topic of portrait photography?

The juxtaposition with works by invited artists is intended to achieve an exciting juxtaposition of the various artistic approaches to the subject of the photographic portrait and to bring the gallery artists into a dialog with positions by external artists.
