OXXXOXXXOXXOOOXOOXXOO

Texts by Christine Gückel-Daxer, Thoman Mang, Dr. Gabriele Heinen-Kljajić, and a foreword by Bettina Roggmann

Since 2012, when he began his series OXXXOXXXOXXOOOXOOXXOO, Ingo Mittelstaedt has celebrated with appreciative devotion the photographic potential of transforming surfaces into structure and the elusive instant into an artistic image. In thirty-eight analogue black and white photographs so far he explores the process of abstraction inherent in the medium as well as the aesthetic alienations resulting from the change from three to two dimensions. (Christine Gückel-Daxer)

The catalogue is presented along with an exhibition on the occasion of the awarding of the New York Stipend 2015 by the Niedersächsische Sparkassenstiftung and the State of Lower Saxony in Schloß Agathenburg.
