ORT – Ouriel Morgensztern: A Photographic Intervention Exhibition at Heidi Horten Collection

The Heidi Horten Collection presents an intervention exhibition featuring Viennese photographer Ouriel Morgensztern. His work engages with the museum's architecture through a subjective lens, focusing on details that gain new aesthetic quality via radical framing and the play of light and shadow.

For its second intervention exhibition, the Heidi Horten Collection highlights the work of Viennese photographer Ouriel Morgensztern. His practice is characterized by a highly personal and subjective approach, where he deliberately concentrates on details within the museum's architecture. Through radical framing, extreme close-ups, and masterful manipulation of light and shadow, Morgensztern imbues these details with a new formal and aesthetic significance. His photographs achieve a delicate balance, making the building's architecture both present and subtly absent, while also evoking the presence of visitors and the art for which the space was created. This duality of presence and absence is a recurring theme in Morgensztern's work, notably explored in his recent project retracing the Viennese film locations of 'The Third Man,' where the narrative is driven by a character believed to be absent, mirroring the way the museum building itself is simultaneously present and absent in his photographic interpretations.

Visitor information, including ticketing details, can likely be found through the museum's official channels.
