Visualisation

  

Kristian Schuller (*1970, Romania), one of the best-known contemporary fashion photographers and entertainer – as he likes to call himself – grew up inspired by art and culture in a stage environment. His father was a dramaturge and director, his mother was an art teacher. Growing up in the grey shades of everyday communist life, he very quickly wanted to leave this dreariness behind him.

After emigrating to Germany, he studied fashion design with Vivienne Westwood and photography with F.C. Grundlach, the legendary German fashion photographer and art collector. The interplay of light and colour became an essential component of his unmistakeable signature. Very soon he was working for well-known fashion magazines like Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar or Elle. As a sharp-tongued photographer on Heidi Klum’s casting show “Germany’s Next Top Model”, he became a star in his own right. 

Together with his wife and creative partner Peggy Schuller he creates visually stunning compositions, and dreamy scenes: a fascinating synthesis of fashion and art. Peggy’s costumes and her input are an essential part of his creations. Schuller’s artistic development is rapid. The real & perfect merges increasingly with scenic elements, surreal and mysterious worlds of images emerge. 

 

The exhibition • 2.200 m² of fireworks of colour and fantasy

In 2021, in collaboration with Messe Congress Graz, we showed the great works of Steve McCurry, one of the most successful photo exhibitions ever to be seen in Graz. 

This summer another highlight will follow in cooperation with the MCG. Schuller’s worlds of colour will be shown in large format, floating and backlit in the formats 2 x 3m and 3 x 4.5m. This presentation emphasizes the power of the photographs and the magic moments !

Visitors can expect a variety of images, ranging from reduced bw images to opulent and colourful works of art from the last 20 years. Each shot tells a lively and dynamic story. In his sensitive and intense shots of Sharon Stone, Cate Blanchett, Heidi Klum, Penélope Cruz and others, his unmistakeable visual language is easy to recognise.
