EXPANSIONS IN CHROMATIC REPRODUCTION

solo show at gallery EXPANDET ART, Berlin

24.01.-13.02.2024

1 Ea 24 Invite

EXPANDED.ART is delighted to present EXPANSIONS IN CHROMATIC REPRODUCTION by Jurgen Ostarhild, his first solo show, at the gallery. On view will be selected works from his extensive oeuvre, spanning from photography to AI.

Jurgen Ostarhild’s 40-year career boasts an impressive resume of noteworthy gallery shows and portraits of cultural figures such as Kate Moss and Martin Kippenberger, fashion brands, and celebrities. Despite his roots in fashion photography, Ostarhild’s motivation for creating goes far beyond the lens of a camera. The artist has delved deep into dissecting the 0s and 1s that comprise a digital image. Through the reimagination of his imagery, be it with Photoshop manipulation, AI, or hex codes, Ostarhild pushes the boundaries of what exactly a photograph is. Blockchain, NFTs, and AI have driven his pursuit of digital art even further.
