Mirko Mielke – abräume

Today sees the opening of the first solo exhibition of Berlin based photographer Mirko Mielke at gallery kvant. The exhibition shows two projects from his “documentation of disappearance” collection.

Since 2004 Mirko has pursued the disappearance of buildings and in his photography and installations, architecture becomes the picture carrier.  His work on the Berliner GDR Ministry for Health in Grunerstraße and the Plattenbauten in Marzahn Hellersdorf tells the story of the presence and absence of a building and its material remains.

A few more details can be found at the gallery kvant website.
