Andreas Koch
Andreas Koch (*1970 in Stuttgart / Germany, lives in Berlin) studied at the Universität der Künste Berlin with Dieter Appelt and Christiane Möbus. Situated between photography, video, and sculpture, his work examines urban space, often focusing on unspectacular phenomena that he tries to perceive in new ways. Across various media, he alters existing spatial and temporal references, rearranges them, and, in this way, transfers them into new contexts of perception and meaning. Koch is also the editor of the magazine von hundert.

Adalbertstraße deals with the spatialization of photographic material. The camera wanders from a window at one end of the (vacant) street slowly zooming out. The central perspective consists of a single take, the work has an extreme depth of focus, made possible by the digital montage of photographic material. Koch deals with urban space, often with unspectacular appearances for which he seeks out new modes of perception.
