One of the photos from Syria that will be shown from The Night of Culture in Lund, Sweden, September 16, 2017
Summer months of silence only means that a lot of exciting things are in the pipeline.
I welcome all new recipients – and here is the preceding shoot.*
The photo above is my digital gift to you.
It's "Natalia And Gerhard Richter" – a "classic" from 2011 and one of the new-old works I've selected to be shown at:
Cultural Night in Lund, Sweden – September 16, 2017
A diverse show with three types:
• New-old works carefully selected, re-edited and re-printed.
• Photos from the December 2016 liberation of Aleppo, Syria – Hope And Suffering – shown for the first time.
• Small unique multi-media photo collages.
Hope to see you! Facebook event here. More info and photos to come.

• contains a photo gift to you, a moment of meditation;
• stimulates your art curiosity and shares positive stuff from the global art world;
• serves as a gateway to the online GlobalArt Magazine and Instagram – and also to
• the blog I write as an art recommender, not an art critic;
• wings into your mailbox freely and inspiringly but never too frequently;
• tells you too – but not primarily – what happens at Oberg PhotoGraphics.
To make space for the new, opening at Cultural Night
Museum Of Artistic Process And Public Art – “Skissernas” – in Lund, Sweden. Unique in that it contains a huge collection of models, drawings and sketches, not the final work. So much inspiration – by far the finest art space in Lund where I live.
Working on some new multimedia photo+ collages – uniques – for the Cultural Night in Lund, Sweden, on September 16 – excited at the millions of options… No idea what I’ll end up with! 🙂
More on Instagram as the new exhibit is being created…
Wolfgang Tillmans at the Beyeler Foundation (2)
– well worth seeing but also perhaps a bit too ” easy” here and there? Wonderful rooms and light for these macro formats!
It’s in Basel and I recommend you visit it 2018!
28 ARTE recently did a long feature with Anahita Ghabaian, pioneering photo gallerist in Tehran. I was proud that they turned to me to use a photo I took of her in her gallery in 2012 as background in the studio.
Here my very short Instagram movie
showing it.
