During Programme No. 13, 3 July until 1 August, 2010, photographer Raimo Lielbriedis<\/a>\u2019 exhibition \u201cBlack & White Stop\u201d at the Kim?\u00a0\/ FK Gallery. The exhibition showcases a selection of black and white photographs taken over a period of several years; the prints of the photographs have been made only this year specially for \u201cThe Black & White Stop\u201d at Kim?.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn order to be able to move forward sometimes a stop is needed. Especially if the movement trajectory starts to resemble a circle. I\u2019m not planning to have a career change; however, it is time to choose the catalysts of movement necessary for development, to find sources of new energy. My accomplishments in the field of black and white photography grants me the possibility \u2013 all I need to do is pause and think it through,\u201d says photographer and pedagogue Raimo Lielbriedis. All the exhibited works have been digitally printed (gicl\u00e9e print<\/em>) from traditionally made black and white negatives using a range of high quality materials. The development of digital print technologies allows endowing completely new qualities to an existing image material preserving the attitude towards the stability of the original both technically and visually.<\/p>\n

The exhibition will present works of highest technical standards, purity of style and refined black and white aesthetics intrinsic to all Raimo Lielbriedis\u2019 works. Works are mostly in the landscape genre. Art historian Aira Dzalbe, commenting on Raimo Lielbriedis works, writes, \u201cThe artist\u2019s principle is to leave enough space for the viewer\u2019s perception; nevertheless, to his mind, a landscape can also be purely decorative (if photographs adorn walls, for example). In his landscapes, there are no stories, no concepts, no notion of the epoch (that photodocumentalists pay particular attention to). They are documentary only in the sense that they allow recognizing the actual places which are also decoded in the laconic titles of the works. The collection rests upon proportions found in nature, i.e., formal things, it does not rest upon revelations of the character of a place or nature\u2019s mood, for example. (..) The things he sees and the things that evoke his photographic interest are planar constructions, rhythms. To him a place holds no significance; however, the feeling does \u2013 slightly contemplative, nostalgic in Tarkovskyian sense.\u201d (Dzalbe, A.\u00a0 Master among People and Cameras. Foto Kvart\u0101ls<\/em>, Nr. 3(23), 2010, 60.lpp.)<\/p>\n
