Transfiguration #1



"If a hen was to paint, it would do so by shedding its feathers", says the French psycho-analysist Jaques Lacan. Similarly, a photograph paints with the very same reality it records, that is, the things themselves. When a photograph "paints" it sheds reality like the hen sheds its feathers. The photographic image that emerges is, in other words, a transgression of the recorded reality.

This is the basic condition Arne Rasmussen's photographic work is founded on, namely that "photography is painting with reality exactly by shedding reality itself".

Arne Rasmussen an international Artphotographer, living in Denmark since 1984 - was born 1962 in Flensburg, Germany and got his breakthrough as an art photographer at "Den frie" exibition hall, Copenhagen 1995. Represented at Muset For Fotokunst, Odense (dk) and Danmarks Fotomuseum, Herning (dk).

International exhibitions include "Little Treasure" in Bologna Italy 2017.
