ris, Berlin, and Prague: works by Heinrich
Kühn, František Drtikol, Josef Sudek, László
Moholy-Nagy, André Kertész, Umbo, and
Albert Renger-Patzsch, among others. The
spectrum ranges from Pictorialism, New
Vision and New Objectivity to the midcentury second avant-garde and contemporary
conceptual works.
Two works by Man Ray, a unique Rayograph
– a cameraless photograph – and its monumental enlargement that served as template for a tapestry, are at the center of
experimental photographic works. The
1925-26 Rayograph of wooden artist mannequins was enlarged to a wall-scaled format in the 1930s. Together with works by
Czech artist Jaromír Funke, Dutch photographer Pim van Os, and Japanese photographer Kiyoshi Niiyama, the group literally
exemplifies designing with light.

Kicken Berlin will present selected masterpieces of classic photo modernism - including works by Man Ray and Jaromír Funke –
under the title Light Abstractions. The exclusive presentation of a photographic treasure also deserves particular attention.
Together with Galerie Françoise Paviot of
Paris, Kicken Berlin will show masterpieces
of the Western avant-garde as collected
directly from the artists in 1931 by Japanese photo critic Senichi Kimura. The accompanying catalogue displays all 22 works of
the Kimura Collection and augments the
pieces with historical information. Kicken
will also focus on the experimental image of
man of Brassaï, Moholy-Nagy, Warhol, and
others.
On the occasion of Art Basel, Kicken Berlin
will be presenting the first publication in the
new series ‘Exposures‘. The book collects
highlights from the gallery’s history in classical European modernism anchored in Pa-
