On the occasion of Timm Rautert's 75th birthday
our gallery is presenting »Weltraum« (Universe), a new project that explores the connections between international conference rooms and portraits. Rautert took these photographs at the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO) and the headquarters of the Guardia di Finanza in Rome in 2014 and 2015.
Timm Rautert was professor for photography at the Academy of Fine Arts Leipzig from 1993 to 2008. He studied at the Folkwang School of Design in Essen from 1966 to 1971 under Otto Steinert.
»The constantly changing image of man preconditioned by work, the questioning of the photographic process and its mimetic potential are the focus of his work.« (Museum of Fine Arts, Leipzig) On the subject of Rautert’s pedagogical legacy, Kerstin Stremmel writes: »It is the combination of a knowledge of the past, a thorough awareness of the present and an insightful use of both that characterises many works of Timm Rautert’s master students.« Among them are students such as Viktoria Binschtok, Bernhard Fuchs, Falk Haberkorn, Sven Johne, Ricarda Roggan, Oskar Schmidt, Sebastian Stumpf, Adrian Sauer and Tobias Zielony.
Timm Rautert is represented in numerous public collections such as J. Paul Getty Museum Los Angeles, The Art Institute of Chicago, MOMA San Francisco, Museum Folkwang Essen, Museum of Fine Arts Leipzig, Sammlung zeitgenössischer Kunst der Bundesrepublik Deutschland Berlin, Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, MMK Frankfurt/Main, Victoria & Albert Museum London, etc.
