Offprint #2 of the Au Chic Parisien portfolio (Prestige box set #8 on Artsper)
This image was captured on film (1983) The selected negative was printed on Baryte paper by the author, this print is a digital reproduction made on Photo Rag Baryte 310 gsm art paper for maximum aging resistance using pigmented inks that are known for their longevity.
In a text dedicated to him, referring to these seemingly silent photographs by Krichbaum, one critic used the term "din" to define the flow of thoughts and feelings that escaped. In this all-too-fast glimpse of Paris, the artist brings the white glass balls of a hotel chandelier into dialogue with two ostrich eggs in a fashionable decorator's window, while the mannequins, scattered throughout the stores and seasons, exchange endless stories. .
Limited Edition of 5 copies.
Please note that this will include any custom sizes requested .

German photographer Jörg Krichbaum is clearly one of the "greats" of his generation. He is appreciated not only in his own country but also in Italy, Belgium and France. His work, his artistic discourse, cannot be caught at first glance, because they are not perceived in a single snapshot, but when they are presented in sets that become coherent despite their disparities. This is what led the artist to accept as many exhibitions as possible.

Following his death in 2002, his successors chose to preserve and protect this photographic archive, but did not give it the visibility it deserved. It is only in 2016 that an inventory and analysis work is started in Brussels, when these archives are entrusted to Brussels Art Edition. Today, those in charge of the Krichbaum Fund are determined to transfer this archive to a European cultural organization (museum, specialized library, etc.) as soon as possible in order to ensure its definitive conservation and presentation to the public.

Prior to this transfer, the curator and the rightful owners have chosen to give great amateurs and collectors the opportunity to acquire thematic "portfolios", all of which are original silver prints, of exceptional quality, on baryta paper, with very rich halftones and really dense blacks.
They are all signed and dated by the artist himself, all authenticated by the curator. These prints are so rare that they can be considered as unique pieces, even if some of them were printed in 2 or 3 copies in the 1980s and 90s.

The detailed biography of the artist can be found on Wikipedia, his books and the catalogs of his exhibitions are always on sale on the Internet (through Amazon and others), everything allows the amateur to verify by himself that the offer made to him today is truly exceptional.

Presentation

Jörg Krichbaum was only 56 years old when he died in Brussels in 2002. Each of his talents, all already established and recognized, would be enough to fill a life: if he is above all a respected photographer, admired and honored with numerous exhibitions and awards professional, he is also a writer, journalist, editor, writer, novelist, playwright. And because his days are obviously longer than ours, he adds painting, sculpture and musical composition. He is a man of abundant existence who will nevertheless become through his photos "the pope" of minimalism, the expert in purity, the narrator of absence, the perfect continuator of the "New Objectivity".

Passionate about architecture, passionate about design, he shows the smallest detail, such as a door handle, the edge of a step, the metal frame of a tent without canvas, not because it is a speaking element of a remarkable construction, but because it bears witness to an intrinsic life, its own, of so many others too, those of its absent users because they had been there in the past but never captured by the photographer's lens, and all the lives that we can imagine since such are the destiny and the freedom of the spectators, the voyeurs, that we are.

From these graphic voids he overflows narrative, leaving everyone to "imagine" what seems to us to be missing in these inanimate images. No human being ever appears in this photographic work, with the exception of statues or mannequins in a fashion store window.

And yet each of these photos screams, even screams, its human dimension because everywhere, from an agonizing stack of tubes in Rome to the placidity of a mooring post in the port of Lisbon, everything is human creation, traces, assertiveness and ultimately arrogance of one species towards all the others who also inhabit this planet.

What questions could a German artist, born in November 1945 in Dortmund, who reached his fifties and perfectly master his technique, ask himself about the place of man and his direct responsibility in the development of humanity? Looked at one by one, these photos tell of the infinity of emptiness, the unfathomability of human beings, the dread of the abyss such as this twentieth century imposed.

Resonating, as they are presented here, grouped into thematic portfolios, they affirm on the contrary the din of men, the persistence of their chimeras. By spreading out the shots over several years and in incredibly varied places, these portfolios attest to the artist's desire, as for a pointillist painting, to gradually create the message so that it appears in the entire constituted . A rare work, an exceptional work, interrupted prematurely but which can finally be found here to the delight of art lovers and collectors.
