Collaborations

Oliver Mark invited 61 artists to work on his photos. Anything could be done to them: cutting, scratching, twisting, framing, pasting, mounting, embroidering and painting beyond recognition. The interventions were as surprising as they were innovative. The format was variable – so was the type of photo paper.

Sometimes the photo was glossy or matt, sometimes on baryta paper, hahnemühle paper or canvas, etc. It was up to the artists to decide. Two prints were made, with one work remaining with each artist.

The exhibition was made possible by the art commissioner of the Archdiocese of Berlin Father Georg Maria Roers SJ.
