LANGER. Space for photography
LANGER in my district Neckarstadt in Mannheim is taking on a new form. The charming vintage shop is becoming a space for photography.
The concept looks something like this: We will be using LANGER. as an atelier, office and project space for photography - with exhibitions, book presentations, readings, artist talks, workshops etc. etc.. First and foremost it should be a meeting place for photography. But also a space where you can get a coffee, grab a photo book and linger cozily on the couch.
Since we both work, there are no regular opening hours. Check the bio on Instagram for current open hours or just drop in spontaneously if you're around.
We are looking forward to seeing you!

PROJECTS
KAZAN IN FEBRUARY [RUSSIA 2020]
The question of where one comes from and where one belongs is at times difficult to answer. Cultural roots and a national identity need time, a physical territory, and fellow human beings to grow. When these elements are missing, something similar to nomadic patterns evolve - the restless feeling of being on a constant search. Born in the Soviet Union and growing up in Germany, I developed an ambiguous relationship to my native culture..
BAIKAL BLUES [RUSSIA 2021]
The work on a long-term project about Russian urban culture led me to Irkutsk, a large city on Lake Baikal in the south of Siberia. In times without a rampant pandemic, the city is full of tourists and life. Due to rising incidences, social and cultural life was reduced to a minimum. The city wrapped itself in a combination of serenity and melancholy. The feeling of being stuck in a transit area spread among the population..
