Peter’s Living Room 2018 – Vince Voltage guest at PhotoFabrics!
This year, our art event „Peter’s Living Room“ was once again a complete success. On Sunday, October 21, 2018, under the beautiful sunshine, over 200 invited guests and art enthusiasts flocked to our newest production rooms at Teinacher Straße 40 in Eglosheim. The guests were greeted with a 50-meter-long red carpet and a 6-meter-long photo wall, which was specially designed by the artist. The photo wall, printed and sponsored by us, invited people to pose and take selfies. A professional photographer captured our guests in the best light. Antique living room chairs and a motorcycle made of contoured cardboard served as photo accessories.
In the interior of the production rooms, alongside coffee and cake, sparkling wine and wine, there were exciting photo works by the artist Vince Voltage. The series „Iron Republic“ – the title of the exhibition – and the series „Demons“ invited the guests into the show room to marvel: breathtaking compositions, incredible looks and shocking image ideas – that is probably the best way to describe “The Art of Vince Voltage”. The artist loves the combination of the bizarre and the unique, which is reflected in all his photographs. Vince Voltage himself says of his works that they invite the viewer to “discover the perfect in the imperfect, the perfect in the chaotic and the beautiful in the ugly – and vice versa of course!”.
The exhibition was then opened in a festive atmosphere by our managing director and owner Peter Sapper. The speeches by Vince Voltage and Norbert Nieser brought some smiles and applause, and afterwards the crowd streamed in to celebrate this successful opening. The young artist had numerous of his exciting works on hand, as well as the two internationally renowned guest stars, model Dani Divine and mask designer Seann Jewall, and Instagram star and model Lisa Rocketcock. No autograph or photo requests were turned down. This created a good mood among all the guests and numerous posts on Instagram and Facebook.
Vince Voltage also had a surprise: his first photo book, which will actually only be available from the 24th of November, was already on sale in a limited edition at Peter’s Wohnzimmer. Many guests immediately took advantage of the offer and had the books signed by the artist and the models.
Throughout the event, the machines were in use in the production process. This not only created the appropriate soundscape but also attracted many interested onlookers. „As a freelance photographer, I find it particularly exciting to see how the subject actually translates into the material,“ enthuses one guest. Prints of works by Vince Voltage were also printed: on acrylic glass blocks and aluminum-based panels. These were strictly limited in quantity and could only be purchased that afternoon.
The exhibition was curated by Norbert Nieser of Galerie Nieser and can be viewed in our business hours from Monday to Friday until November 17, 2018.
