The Cologne-based photographer Candida Höfer will be awarded the Käthe Kollwitz Prize 2024. The prize will be awarded on 9/13/2024 as part of Berlin Art Week in the Academy of Arts at Pariser Platz. On the occasion of the award ceremony, the Academy of Arts is showing an exhibition of works by Candida Höfer.Ever since embarking on her first photographic projects in the early 1970s, Candida Höfer has been primarily interested in what could best be termed public space - interiors, such as libraries, auditoriums, lobbies, foyers, museums, club houses or, more rarely, urban scenarios such as public squares, streets or zoos. Höfer's recent photographs present a systematic study of rooms in various libraries, some modern and institutional, others centuries old and grand. Her straightforward and detached style seems at first objective and purely documentary, but is ultimately overtaken by incongruous elements and the mimetic nature of her subject matter. People are noticeably absent from her highly formal images. Instead, Hofer emphasizes repeated forms within the rooms such as chairs, tables, bookshelves and light fixtures to create patterns and produce a sense of orderliness. However, despite their conspicuous absence, it is people in whom Hofer is most interested; our culture and lifestyle are reflected in the architecture and interiors we create. Candida Höfer's relationship to architecture is fully in keeping with the New Objectivity tradition. Her photographs of public spaces are almost sober and ascetic in feel - especially as she forgoes any spectacular staging of the locations. The emptiness is imbued with substance with a subtle attention to colour, and the prevailing silence instilled with a metaphysical quality. Even when Höfer's photographs present significant works of renowned architects or designers, her incorruptible and consistently laconic approach means that the architectural mind in question takes a back seat to the photographer. Candida Höfer was born in 1944. She was a student at the Düsseldorf Academy of Art and studied film under Ole John before going on to study photography under Bernd Becher. The influence of the precise, scientifically minded Bechers (under whom Andreas Gursky, Thomas Struth and Thomas Ruff also studied), is very apparent in Hofer's work. She has taken part in many group exhibitions and has held countless solo shows, most recently at the Venice Biennale -- along side Martin Kippenberger they represented Germany -- and at Documenta XI, where her Zwölf - Twelve cycle was displayed. She is one of the greats of the international photographic and art community. Candida Höfer is represented by Sean Kelly Gallery, New York, NY.
