Text by Bettina Paust, Klaus Biesenbach, Norman Bryson, Alexander Grönert, Peter Moritz Pickshaus.
Since the late 1960s, acclaimed Czech experimental photographer Katharina Sieverding (born 1944) has worked with photography, film, video and slide projections to address political and ecological concerns as well as the construction of identity. Before Jeff Wall or the post-Becher generation, Sieverding was making large-scale photographs as posters, or walls of posters. This catalogue surveys her career, documenting in particular her newest project, Looking at the Sun at Midnight. For this piece, Sieverding downloaded about 100,000 images of the surface of the sun made by NASA between May 2010 and June 2013, condensing them into a dynamic portrait of its surface. In this volume this new work is placed in dialogue with a representative selection of series from 1968 to 2013.
