Annette Schreiber, a German-born photographer, has been capturing the world through her lens since childhood. With a Master’s Degree in Photography earned in 2000, Schreiber has developed a distinctive style that emphasizes the emotional resonance of architectural forms. Her work often features high-rise buildings, utilizing negative space and natural light gradients to create compositions that are both surreal and evocative.
Schreiber's photography is predominantly black and white, a choice that accentuates the contrast between light and shadow. This technique allows her to focus on the emotional undertones of her subjects, transforming rigid, linear structures into atmospheric objects that convey a deeper sentiment. Her use of greyscale not only highlights the architectural elements but also imbues each image with a moody, introspective quality.
Annette Schreiber's talent has not gone unnoticed. She recently won two categories and received an honorable mention in the 10th Pollux Awards, a prestigious international photography competition. This recognition underscores her ability to capture the essence of her subjects in a way that resonates with viewers on an emotional level.
The "Illumination" exhibition also includes works from other notable photographers, each bringing their unique perspective to the medium:
"Illumination: An Exhibition of Fine Art Photography" is a celebration of the diverse techniques and styles that contemporary photographers employ. The exhibition blends documentary-style photography with abstract and fanciful works, offering a comprehensive look at the creative possibilities within the field.
Annette Schreiber's work in "Illumination: An Exhibition of Fine Art Photography" offers a compelling exploration of architectural forms through a lens that emphasizes emotional depth and atmospheric potential. Her ability to transform familiar urban landscapes into evocative compositions makes this exhibition a must-see for anyone interested in the intersection of architecture and fine art photography.
