BY HERMAN HERMSEN
EXHIBITION DATES :
FRIDAY 6th , JULY - SUNDAY 26th, AUGUST
ATTA GALLERY

     “For years I make photographs of all kinds of situations of which I think there is something special about it, a detail or a kind of composition, from a city, industrial area, country or nature, etc. Sometimes I take pictures from old books, papers or television on which I can react with a humoristic adding I take small details from it and work with those. And I make photos from paintings and objects in museums and I look for special details on which I can react. Over the years I made hundreds of photos of head-ornaments from buildings in different countries in Europe so most of all the pictures I use I take myself. Those of known paintings I mostly take myself but sometimes I find them on the Internet. I always do something special with the picture and I don’t want to violate any copyrights.”
