Read MoreThe blinding light of civilisation allows the series Blank to become an allegory of today's fast-moving and over stimulated society. The Japan Series was photographed in the context of European Eyes on Japan in the prefecture Tottori. In the series Supervisions, Gefeller employs a technically elaborate method to scan the surfaces of urban sites. By means of long-term exposure, the Duesseldorf based photo artist has captured a world of starkly utopian quality in Soma. Halbwertszeiten throws an intense light on people and landscapes in the near surroundings of Tschernobyl − 10 years after the nuclear catastrophe.
