Sabine Reinfeld: obsessive and imaginable objects
As part of the 10th year of the Fotograf Festival, The Josef Sudek Studio in the Lesser Town of Prague is hosting an exhibition by the German photographer Sabine Reinfeld entitled 'Imaginable I, Obsessive Objects X Obsessive I, Imaginable Objects'. The exhibition takes place until the 11th of October. The aim of the tenth Fotograf Festival is to give space to works that create or address an encounter with the other and to resurrect the function that can be attributed in this way to documentary photography and motion picture.
Sabine Reinfeld
Sabine Reinfeld’s photographs exhibited in The Josef Sudek’s Studio prove this point. The photographer mainly works performatively and with media such as video clips and photographs.
Similar to Josef Sudek, the important Czech photographer renowned for his black and white photographs of Prague, the interior and courtyard of his studio, still lifes, documentary photos, landscapes and advertisements, Reinfeld also examines reproduction through performative photography with a certain obsession.
Layered negatives
Reinfeld layers negative photographs on top of each other to create her prints. The photographer uses her body as a sculpture in her photos and brings Sudek’s photographs to life.
Her self-portraits, taken in the Josef Sudek Studio gardens, are part of the exhibition, and they refer to Sudek’s photographs of outdoor sculptures.
