Philippe Halsman (1906-1979), an Austrian émigré forced to live in exile in France, had deep sympathy for, and understanding of, individuals whose basic living needs were in jeopardy. At the time Refugee Girl, Paris, 1938, was taken, Halsman had already established a reputable career as a fashion photographer, and his closely-cropped portraits were lauded as the new preferred mode over the previous style of soft focus and heavy styling. Halsman fused his skills as a fashion photographer with his deep compassion for the refugee to create an image that is striking for its aesthetic appeal as much as for its sincerity.
Prior to the invasion of France by Germany in 1940 Halsman managed to get an American visa with the help of Albert Einstein. In 1947, he clicked one of his most famed photographs, that of Albert Einstein in a mournful expression because during the session he was recounting his regrets on his role in America, helping to create the atomic bomb. The photo was later used in the postage stamp of United States in 1966 and on Time magazine’s cover in 1999. In 1958, Halsman was nominated in World’s Ten Greatest Photographers for Popular Photography. In1975, the American Society of Magazine Photographers gave him the Photography Award for Life Achievement.

The Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863-1944) is regarded as a pioneer in the Expressionist movement in modern painting. Obsessed with self-portraiture he constantly took his psychic temperature and charted shifts in his inner world. Over the course of his long life he painted over 70 likenesses that follow him through many of his life’s vicissitudes. From a young and decadent artist to an elderly, sick man staring death in the face, these self-portraits afford intimate insights into his life.
This original painting by Munch was seen and photographed on display at San Francisco's Museum of Modern Art.

如果一天過完了,
而我卻沒做些關於攝影的事,
我便覺得似乎忽略了些對我的存在極為重要的事,
宛如我忘記起床似的。
And if a day goes by without my doing something related to photography, it's as though I've neglected something essential to my existence, as though I had forgotten to wake up.
~ Richard Avedon - 1970

Vernissage der ersten gemeinsamen Ausstellung von Ali Görmez (50 FACES & MORE) und Wolfgang Brückner (STRUKTUR-
FORSCHER) im Waldorf Astoria Berlin (19. Etage) - 27. März 2015
* Ali Görmez *
Ob im Fahrstuhl, auf der Straße, im Büro oder auf Veranstaltungen. Gesichter sind allerorts. Überall treffen wir auf sie und beginnen sie in unterschiedliche Situationen einzuordnen, Mimiken zu deuten und zu verstehen. In Gesichtern finden wir unser Verständnis, unsere Zugehörigkeit, unsere Abneigungen und eigene Tiefen.
Auch Pop Art Künstler Ali Görmez liebt Gesichter. Dabei geht es nicht um das Einschätzen und Zuordnen von Schönheit. Denn der Künstler weiß, dass sich Gesichter schnell verstellen können, um sich unverwundbar, stark oder kompetent zu zeigen. Er weiß auch, dass das, was vielleicht im ersten Moment gelingen mag, auf den zweiten verblasst.
Für Ali Görmez sind Gesichter Geschichten und Emotionen. Emotionen, in die er eintauchen möchte. Dabei sucht der Künstler die Tür, um hinter die Fassade blicken zu können, um die Geschichte und das Erlebte zu lesen und den Umgang mit diesem zu verstehen.
* Wolfgang Brückner *
Ausgangspunkt für das Projekt STRUKTURFORSCHER war u.a. die Beobachtung, dass die Identität und Besonderheiten der Lage von Gebäuden und Wohnanlagen meist in den Innenräumen schlagartig verschwindet. Selbst große prunkvolle Bauwerke verlieren in ihren Innenräumen schnell an Ausstrahlung. Und wenn Kunst Teil der Inneneinrichtung ist, hat sie selten einen logischen Zusammenhang mit den Gebäuden und der Umgebung. Wolfgang Brückners Bilder schaffen einerseits eine Identifikation und „Verbrüderung“ mit dem jeweiligen Gebäude, anderseits auch „Traum-Fenster“ in die nähere Umgebung, die eigentlich das zeigen, was z. B. hinter den Mauern zu sehen wäre, wenn der Architekt ein Fenster in eine erweiterte Wahrnehmung hätte bauen können.

Opening NEUE HORIZONTE I - Waldorf Astoria, Berlin 2015
Opening of the first joint exhibition by Ali Görmez (50 FACES & MORE) and Wolfgang Brückner (STRUKTURFORSCHER) at Waldorf Astoria Berlin (19th floor) - March 27, 2015
* Ali Görmez *
Whether in the elevator, on the street, in the office or at events. Faces are everywhere. We encounter them everywhere and begin to categorize them in different situations, to interpret and understand facial expressions. In faces we find our understanding, our affiliation, our dislikes and our own depths.
Pop artist Ali Görmez also loves faces. But it is not about assessing and classifying beauty. The artist knows that faces can quickly disguise themselves in order to appear invulnerable, strong or competent. He also knows that what may be successful at first glance fades the second time around.
For Ali Görmez, faces are stories and emotions. Emotions that he wants to immerse himself in. In doing so, the artist seeks the door to be able to look behind the façade, to read the story and the experience and to understand how to deal with it.
* Wolfgang Brückner *
One of the starting points for the STRUKTURFORSCHER project was the observation that the identity and special features of the location of buildings and residential complexes usually disappear abruptly in the interiors. Even large, magnificent buildings quickly lose their charisma in their interiors.And when art is part of the interior design, it rarely has a logical connection with the buildings and their surroundings.Wolfgang Brückner's pictures create an identification and "fraternization" with the respective building on the one hand, but also "dream windows" into the immediate surroundings on the other, which actually show what could be seen behind the walls, for example, if the architect had been able to build a window into an expanded perception.
"Grumpy Blue Jay" by Patti Deters. A blue jay (Corvidae 'Cyanocitta cristata') perches gracefully on a thin branch, looking directly at the camera. If you look closely, it appears the bird has a rather grumpy expression for the photographer! Thank you for viewing this picture.
