Thomas Weinberger

 

Born 1964

Lives in Munich

 

A subtle contrast underlies the precision in the work of Thomas Weinberger. In his photographs he uses two exposures of particular motifs. One exposure is taken during the day, the other at night time. This creates an unreal visual effect with the lighting conditions of day and night solidifying into a lasting image. Weinberger’s synthesis of two images into a single synchronized composition challenges our everyday perception of the continuum of temporality. With the first public recognition of his work in 2005, Thomas Weinberger has achieved rapid international acclaim.

 

His work has been exhibited in the Palais des Beaux Arts in Brüssel (2007), the Australian Centre for Photography (2007), and the Gulbenkian Foundation in Paris (2008) and may also be found in private and and public collections worldwide.
