fotodiskurs presents Christof Rehm’s recent body of work Curonian Spit for the first time as a solo presentation. In this photographic work, Christof Rehm stratifies times and techniques as well as putting past and present on top of each other. He shows landscapes of Erna Lendvai-Dircksen through his lens, forms historical photographs with simple means to contemporary images. By using the ordinary camera of his old mobile phone he creates images of ominous timelessness.

fotodiskurs is a place for artistic photography and for dialogue about photography in Augsburg, Germany. In the exhibitions in the 'Pavillon am Berghof' the works of a photo artist are always confronted by a single work of a different artist. This single work can be from another contemporary or an artist of former times. Also a painting, a sculpture, literature or another artistic expression is possible.

To keep the discourse going there are further events, which take up, deepen, expand and look at the current topic from different perspectives. Therefore not exhibitory artists exchange their views about the presented art in the 'Jour fixe' that is hold at the second Sunday of each exhibition.

Again a booklet with literary and visual food for thoughts, showing not only the photographs but also excerpts of different sources (this time with Erna Lendvai-Dircksen, Alfred Ehrhardt and others), is released to go with the exhibition.
