A Concentration

The image, produced and disseminated through the media in the billions today, is perceived as a distraction and diversion rather than as a focus and concentration. The artistic image allows us a deepening, an intensification, and an opening of perspective that fully integrates us into the act of seeing and being seen. – Anton Kehrer’s work is a prime example of this.

Three key elements of his work stand out: firstly, light sources in public, urban spaces; secondly, light artworks by other artists; and thirdly, studio photographs using coloured glass plates. One could also speak of a connection to place, a connection to history, and a self-referential quality
Wolfgang Giegler

It is about focus and concentration. The artist opens a gateway, behind which lies that entirely real world of possibilities accessible to the human imagination.
