description: The work of photographer Frank Darius perfectly captures the play of intimacy and distance in the urban landscape. He discovers moments that carry an unstable emotional charge, expanding a ticking second into the immensity of a lifetime. Colors streak through the twilight, unheard-of things inhabit the silence. The works presented in "Tunichtgut" map a series of claustrophobically empty sites that relate the beauty of a postlapsarian world, daring us to either to look deeper into it or to revel in its surface. These seemingly self-contained photographs ally with each other to weave a complex and moving narrative of innocence and experience. Darius's work is on some levels reminiscent of photographers like Andreas Gursky, but is distinguished by its elements of storytelling and surprise. A splendid introduction to this up-and-coming artist's unique and revelatory work, "Tunichtgut" presents 50 stunning images in full color.
