With interiors as her subject, Anna Lehmann-Brauns (*1967 in Berlin), a former student of Joachim Brohm’s master class at the Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst in Leipzig, explores the concept of the room as a site of personal memory. Sometimes the selected spaces are small models constructed by the artist; often they are pre-existing locations. The photographs, devoid of human presence, demonstrate an exceptional manipulation of light as well as a vivid use of color. In this way, Lehmann-Brauns lends these often decrepit, morbid sites a certain splendor that has long been absent.
This all-color volume, with texts by Miriam Dreysse and Maren Lübbke-Tidow, provides a concise insight into the work of a photographer who has already received much critical acclaim.
