Galerie Judith Andreae

We are delighted to be part of this year’s Paris Photo in the Digital Sector with a solo presentation by Tim Berresheim. Tim Berresheim (*1975) is a pioneering figure in computer-based art, seamlessly blending art history, technology, science, and nature. He views the computer as a transformative tool, akin to the hand axe that once liberated humanity from caves. Focusing on the essence of images in the digital age, Berresheim explores the creative potential within contemporary visual culture. His work analyzes the often-overlooked elements that shape our humanity in a rapidly changing world. By harnessing advanced digital technologies, he meticulously crafts artworks that reflect our present. Berresheim’s art invites viewers to navigate new processes, expanding language and acknowledging personal interpretations. His works represent a reimagined world that organizes chaos into narratives of human existence. In Tim Berresheim’s works, as depicted here, the figures often represent a „Cicerone“ - a guide who traditionally leads viewers through artistic or historical spaces. In this context, the Cicerone serves as a mediator between the viewer and the artwork, symbolizing the audience within the image itself. This figure encourages a self-reflective process by shifting the focus from merely observing the artwork to observing the act of observation itself.
