Time Travel

The picturesque landscape, the gradually increasing importance of tourism in the 19th century and the presence of the imperial family all led to an unusual concentration of photographers in the Salzkammergut.They left behind a considerable number of historical photographs and archives. The Time Travel project shines the spotlight on the little-known historical photographers of the region.

Everyday scenes, portraits and landscape photographs by Styrian photographers Albert Rastl, Michael Moser, Erich Bahrendt, Konrad Mautner and others are made available to international photo artists: Zuzana Pustaiova (SVK), Yukimi Akiba (JP), Kim Boske (NL), Zhang Kechun (CHN), Marco Lanza (IT), Elisabeth Czihak (A), Tamas Dezso (HUN), Pawel Jaszczuk (POL), Patrick Lambertz (DE-CH), Stefanie Mooshammer (A) and Yvonne Oswald (A). They comment on and interpret the historical views, in this way linking them up to contemporary photographic art.

The exhibition will display both the historical and newly created works.
