Last chance to look at André Lützen's photos and only chance to look at the outcome of the workshop 'The Spaceship Assignment'.

 

Climate is a universal buzzword, but it is refreshing to look at the issue from a creative rather than a clinical perspective and German photographer André Lützen gives us exactly this opportunity. Lützen's Living Climate: A Tale of Three Cities, an exhibition of photographs focusing on three cities with different weather conditions: Kochi in South India, Arkhangelsk in North-West Russia and Khartoum in Sudan.

In Living Climate: A Tale of Three Cities, Lützen approaches the question of how climate influences people and their ways of living. He documented how climate defines living situations and effects a diverse interplay between private and public. All photographs were taken between 2014 and 2017. The photos: Inside Out Kochi were taken during his bangaloREsidency@Pepper House.

Living Climates: A Tale of Three Cities is presented in association with URU – Art Harbour.

During his stay in Bangalore, Lützen will conduct a 2-day workshop, entitled The Spaceship Assignment, for local photographers. For more information please click here.
