Step by Step - Coffret Prestige # 1 - Portfolio of 6 photos, 21st Century, Minimalist Black and White Photography Artwork sold in perfect condition Portfolio Step by Step, 6 photos. Steps, a ladder, almost all from the bottom to the top, to show you are climbing. Or ? It's up to everyone to decide, to think about which metaphor they prefer. But it's still a personal matter. For some it will be happy, easy or joyful, while for others, Jörg says in a text written in 1982, the image will refer to a painful memory, a painful sensation, an ordeal. Because this image is "us", it is only us but it is all of us. 6 baryta prints 24 cm x 30 cm mounted under a white open-frame 2mm thick in 40 cm x 50 cm format with the artist's stamp on the back.

Au chic Parisien - Coffret Prestige # 8 - Minimalist Black & White Photography
By Jörg Krichbaum
Located in Brussels, BE
Artwork sold in perfect condition - Portfolio Au Chic Parisien - 5 photos In a text devoted to him, evoking these seemingly silent photos of Krichbaum, one critic used the term "din" to define the flow of thoughts and feelings that escaped from it. In this too quick glimpse of Paris, the artist creates a dialogue between the white glass balls of a hotel chandelier with two ostrich eggs in the window of a fashionable decorator, while the fashion models, scattered at will shops and seasons, endless stories are exchanged. From left to right and top to bottom: 1981, 1977, 1976, 1981, 1981, 1983. 5 baryta prints 24 cm x 30 cm mounted under a mat in 40 cm x 50 cm format, 2mm thick with the artist's stamp and signature on the back. This constitutes a very exceptional offer. German photographer Jörg Krichbaum...
