From cell space to outer space? - Understanding nature through photographic abstraction

Lecture by Eckart Bartnik, artistic photographer, Wiesbaden

on Thursday, October 23, 2025, at 6 pm

Eckart Bartnik's photographic work moves through intermediate spaces - between microcosm and macrocosm, between scientific observation and artistic imagination, between documentary accuracy and expressionist abstraction. This lecture focuses on the series Revelation, created in the clay pits of the Westerwald: places of geological depth where the earth's history is revealed in form, color and structure. With his camera, he immerses himself in landscapes that seem like dream images - shaped by time, sediment and human intervention. The results are pictorial worlds that allow familiar nature to tip over into the unknown. In addition, other photographic works are presented in which he explores landscapes with all their ambivalences and fractures and abstracts views of nature into inner landscapes.
