Dennis Schnieber

“Minimal photography for me goes hand in hand with a certain way of perceiving the environment: the experimental and searching look at what lies dormant between all the obviousness.” Dennis Schnieber

Dennis comes from a village in Brandenburg, but lives and studies in Berlin. His works are exclusively analogue. That means on analogue film material. Just like in the past. For Dennis Schnieber, photography is a constant confrontation between his eyes and the world surrounding him. In the tradition of the New Topographics movement, his style is characterized by a certain restraint and a preference for formal design. His joy of experimentation is always in search of what lies dormant between the obvious.

Minimalist photography

Minimal or Minimalist photography is in the tradition of the Minimal Arts of the 20th century. It embodies a style of contemporary photography whose language is simplicity. Her works concentrate on the reduction of pictorial elements to a minimum and the composition of components such as form, colour and line to – often picturesque – compositions.

Minimalist Photographers

Minimalist Photographers like Dennis Schnieber find their motives in everyday life. They discover them through a very special view of the world. On the always the same, the banal. Sometimes they are schematic descriptions of the topography, sometimes purely planar abstract compositions. Sometimes detailed, sometimes spacious.
It‘s always a matter of reduction. To show things as they are. What you can discover in them – or what you can discover in yourself, through them. If you only engage with them or see through them. To find something that you were not looking for. For us all this means mindfulness and the works of Galerie Minimal are their visualization.
