" Ζωγραφιζω εκεινο που δεν μπορει να φωτογραφηθει και φωτογραφιζω εκεινο που δεν επιθυμω να ζωγραφισω...Δεν με ενδιαφερει να γινομαι κατανοητος ως ζωγραφος, ως δημιουργος αντικειμενων ή ως φωτογραφος".... "Δεν ειμαι φωτογραφος της φυσης αλλα της φαντασιας μου ... θα προτιμουσα να φωτογραφισω μια ιδεα παρα ενα αντικειμενο κι ενα ονειρο παρα μια ιδεα" Man Ray (1890-1976)

“Urlaub in Saig” by Marc Grümmert (*1977)

Marc Grümmert’s current work “Urlaub in Saig” (Holidays in Saig) deals with transformed imagery. Their origin lies in a set of anonymous negatives from the Black Forest from 1977. Due to improper storage, microbial and chemical processes have transformed the layers of colour, so that the images are now nothing more than preserved fragments of memory. Viewers are left with a sense of their aura – a kind of independent projection screen on which they can reconstruct missing elements with the aid of their imagination.
Through the facility of the artist’s over-all adaptation these photographs refresh our collective memory. The colourful interpretation of their intangible pictorial elements creates a new world that condenses the past and future while cancelling the idea of a supposed reality.
If one could visualize dreams, this work could be their intoxicated, coloured transcription. This way Marc Grümmert designs a completely subjective artificial paradise, which involves conscious and the unconscious. Being clear about how Vanitas brings about new forms and colours, and new beauty, the artist creates his own uncompromising new reality that draws us into the maelstrom of vanity. This results in a kind of Brave New World.
Marc Grümmert studied at the Heiligendamm FAK and the University of Wismar, where he graduated in 2003 with a diploma in photography. He presented his visions in a national and international context as part of the extensive exhibition “ABSAGE AN DIE WIRKLICHKEIT”, which was on tour to over 16 places and to which Kerber Verlag published a comprehensive catalogue. In the group exhibition, “HAUPTSTROM – WHEN THE CLOCK STRIKES TWENTY”, his work was shown with the works of Gosbert Adler, Eva Bertram, Antje Dorn, Erich vom Endt, André Grossmann, Dolorès Marat, Jitka Hanzlova, Volker Heinze, Klaus Küster, Kenneth van Sickle among others.
