Portraits different

IN FRONT OF is a series of 70 images in which Heidi Specker examines the circumstances and conditions of portrait photography. Rather than following the usual code of conduct regarding photography, she creates in her studio an atmosphere that reveals the power structures and interdependencies that emerge between photographer and model during a sitting. She develops her images from a negative attitude towards conven­tional portrait photography, which is primarily invested in representation and self-portrayal. In her casualness and unwieldiness her portraits raise the issue of proximity and how to capture their personality.

Heidi Specker, born 1962, lives and works since 1992 in Berlin. 1996 she received the European Photography Award and 2005 the Deutscher Fotopreis. Frieze art magazin London noted in 2006: Her abstraction is not pure form, but one possible way to organize a view of an urban landscape. If she photographs nature or human bodies, they nevertheless seem organically made, like paintings or collages, rather than artificially manipulated.
