We are delighted to invite you to our group exhibition marking the 10th anniversary of Galerie Springer Berlin. When we opened the gallery in its current format 10 years ago, it was founded on Robert Springer’s 20 years’ experience of gallery work stemming from a long family tradition. The decision to run the gallery with Heide Springer resulted in a reorientation of the gallery programme towards photography. Over the past decade, we are proud to have made an international name for o…

In the exhibition Natural Appearance by Maria Jauregui Ponte and Aitor Ortiz, Galerie Springer Berlin is showing two series that have emerged independently of each other, but which are dedicated to the same theme, namely the appearance of nature.

The project seeks to create a reality that is immaterial but that the viewe…

Edward Burtynsky geboren 1955 in Ontario, studierte Fotografie und Mediendesign an der Ryerson University in Toronto. In seiner Arbeit erforscht er die komplizierten Verbindungen zwischen Natur und Indust…

Die Galerie Springer Berlin präsentiert Fotografien und Objekte des baskischen Künstlers Aitor Ortiz (1971) erstmalig in Berlin. Ortiz arbeitet mit dem Raum, der Architektur und dem Gegenstand als Ausgangselementen, um uns immer wieder vor visuelle und kognitive Rätsel zu stellen. Seine Arbeit, die er ausschließlich in Schwarzweiß präsentiert, geht über die dokumentarische Architekturfotografie hinaus und betont die mit der fotografischen Darstellung ein…
