{"product_id":"15758-olaf-otto-becker","title":"Olaf Otto Becker","description":"Breathtaking views of untouched landscapes from a remote part of our earth, photographed in the light of the night, without shadows: Olaf Otto Becker (*1959 in Travemünde) brings back images of overwhelming beauty from adventurous inflatable boat trips across the Arctic seas of Greenland. Like his first series from Iceland, Under the Nordic Light, they possess something of the sublimity of romantic landscape painting in their iconography of melancholy and stillness. And at the same time, through the incorruptible gaze of the researcher and their exact geographical localization, they bear witness to a time when glaciers are disappearing in a warming climate. Thus, these photographs preserve the artist's astonishment at the beauty of creation – and simultaneously document its endangerment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eExhibition: Galerie f 5;6, Munich 4.4. –14.6.2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOLAF OTTO BECKER (*1959, Travemünde) studied communication design in Augsburg and philosophy and political science in Munich.
