July 21 - September 2, 2007
Opening and book presentation on Saturday July 21nd at Noorderlicht Photogallery, 17.00 hrs.
The assignment Thought Provoking, Sense Provoking is initiated by Noorderlicht and the Wall House #2 Foundation. At their invitation eight international photographers each stayed for one or two weeks in the Wall House #2 during the period September 2006 - February 2007. The photographers let themselves be challenged, surprised and inspired by this eccentric design by the famous American architect and architectural theoretician John Hejduk (1929-2000). They processed their ideas and experiences into eight series that collectively engage in a highly creative game with architecture and photography.
Thomas Kellner, artist in residency in autumn 2006, will be present at the opening.
