\r\n\r\nGaleria Leme presents \u201eNowhere is a Place\u201c, the second solo exhibition of German artist Frank Thiel.\r\n\r\nThe exhibition\u2019s title is taken from a book co-written by Bruce Chatwin and Paul Theroux in 1992 based on their impressions of Patagonia.\r\n\r\nThiel experienced the timeless and raw beauty of one of the purest, oldest and most unique landscapes on earth 15 years ago for the first time. In 2011 and 2012 he returned to Patagonia for several visits to create this new body of work and turned his camera on the massive glacial ice formations in the Parque National Los Glaciares in Argentine, Patagonia, which is part of the Southern Patagonian Ice Field, the third largest ice cap in the world.\r\n\r\nThe resulting images are a haunting meditation on the majesty and resilience, as well as the fragility and endangerment, of these frozen, sublime, natural edifices.\r\n\r\nSeemingly endless variations of blues, greys, charcoals and white. Highly textured surfaces with densely packed details, alluring and ominous at the same time. Almost supernatural looking shapes, peaks, cliffs and structures of ice, that are thousands of years old and far more ancient than any human construction. Infinite timelines and striations engraved in majestic ice walls soaring hundreds of feet above the Lago Argentino and it\u2019s surrounding mountains and valleys.\r\n\r\nIn inspecting this organic architecture with his eye for detail and composition, with an almost archeological focus and a painterly sense of abstraction and color Thiel spreads his 20 years lasting engagement with themes of temporality, decay and transformation found in Berlin\u2019s rapidly changing post-unification urban topography over the more plodding pace of prehistory.\r\n\r\nAbout the artist :\r\n\r\nFrank Thiel (Kleinmanchnow, Germany, 1966) lives in Berlin.\r\n\r\nThiel\u2019s work is in the collections of major international museums, including: Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sof\u00eda, Madrid, Spain; Moderna Museet, Stockholm, Sweden; Centro Galego de Arte Contempor\u00e1nea, Santiago de Compostela, Spain; Art Gallery of Ontario, Toronto, Canada; Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Washington D.C., USA; Fotomuseum Winterthur, Switzerland; Hamburger Bahnhof, Museum f\u00fcr Gegenwart, Berlin, Germany; Museum Moderner Kunst | Stiftung Ludwig Wien, Vienna, Austria; National Gallery of Canada in Ottawa; Mus\u00e9e de l\u2019Elys\u00e9e, Lausanne, Switzerland; The Phillips Collection, Washington DC, USA; and the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., USA.\r\n\r\nIn addition to the 48th Biennale in Venice, Italy and the 14th Biennale of Sydney, Australia, Thiel has been included in exhibitions at Mori Art Museum, Tokyo, Japan; Portland Art Museum, USA; Austin Museum of Art, USA; Phoenix Art Museum, USA; Bass Museum of Art, Miami, USA; P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center, New York, USA; Museo Nacional de Bella Artes, Havana, Cuba; Centre Pompidou-Metz, France; Centre National de la Photographie Paris, France; Neue Nationalgalerie, Berlin, Germany; and the Museo Jacobo Borges in Caracas, Venezuela, among others.\r\n\r\nIn Brazil his works have been shown at the XXV.
