Between Studio, Street, and Art History

Daniel Biskup is regarded as one of Germany's most renowned contemporary photographers. His documentary photography focuses on historical upheavals, political landscapes, and people in their specific living environments. The Kunsthalle Göppingen describes his approach as unadulterated and empathetic; he has also portrayed significant figures such as Anselm Kiefer, Katharina Sieverding, Karl Lagerfeld, and Claudia Schiffer.

The selection on display in Augsburg ranges from early photographs from 1989 to later encounters with international artists. In the magazine of the art collections, it becomes evident how Biskup captures not just faces, but entire atmospheres: the image becomes an encounter, the gaze a work reflection, and the portrait a cultural narrative. He also speaks there about how artworks in his portraits guide the viewer and how the light mood itself becomes a motif.

The Schaezlerpalais as a Suitable Resonance Space

The Schaezlerpalais is not only a magnificent Rococo ensemble but also a house with a deep collection: the German Baroque Gallery, the Graphic Collection, and the famous Rococo festival hall characterize the location. Here, Biskup's artist portraits unveil their special effect, as historical architecture, curatorial museology, and contemporary photography sharpen each other.
