ANSICHTEN VIEWS VUES - ELGER ESSER LEINEN

Waves  wells  and watersides????????????from his very beginnings  water has been a continuous
subject of Elger Esser's photographic landscapes and vedutas. In his most recent series  the
D????????sseldorf photographer presents digitally processed  colored seaside postcards from the
1900s showing bathers and boats  rocks and froth. Selected from the artist's enormous postcard
collection  these highly enlarged  grainy seascapes exude an intriguing old-masterly quality
that brings to mind past times and the memories inscribed. Fusing antique aesthetics and
digital technology  Esser proves to be an avant-garde romantic of our times  a quiet
apocalyptic praising life against the disappearance of the world. Alexander P????????hringer's
essay relates Esser's tableaus to the classic age of discovery and the grand-tour quest for
far-away places.
