Featured Artist | Ursula Sprecher & Andi Cortellini | Freizeitfreunde (Friends in Leisure) | Freizeitfreunde (Friends in Leisure), is a series of photographs depicting places and the people who populate them: from pipe smokers to traffic police, the butcher union to the poodle association. Captured using analogous color negative film, the scenes are precisely arranged with selectively chosen stages, situations and people therein. Ursula and Andi approach every photograph differently, whether it is finding inspiration in locations, communities or groups. Their process transforms the photographs beyond the ordinary photos of clubs and traditional group photos into unique and never before seen views of friends in leisure.
