An artistic experience between suspension, night, and poetic precision
The opening of Lukas Pürmayr – As Long as You Stay at the kunst galerie fürth brings a photographic position to the center that does not fix perception but opens it up. The vernissage on September 18, 2026, leads to an exhibition where analog and digital photography, filmic and textual works, as well as cooperative projects come together. The introduction will be given by Natalie de Ligt, director of the kunst galerie fürth; the artist will be present.

Photography as a staging of the indefinite
Pürmayr's works revolve around the apparent, around those silent moments in which places change their significance. Nightly scenes, deserted settings, and floating image spaces connect photographic abstraction with concrete narration. It is precisely this strength of the exhibition: It invites not to quick reading but to careful contemplation of the works.

Space, identity, and social structures
The artistic approach of Lukas Pürmayr, born in 1994 in Reutte, Tyrol, combines an analytical perspective with poetic restraint. In his works, he addresses questions of identity, social structures, and the perception of reality. His education in sociology, philosophy, and fine arts, as well as his graduation as a master student at the Academy of Fine Arts in Nuremberg, shape this reflective visual language.

Work groups with strong spatial impact
The exhibition presents works from series such as BREATH and Night on Earth as well as large-format motifs like ZERO. Particularly, the spatial dimension of individual works and the motif of a barn owl as an observer and guide give the exhibition an intense atmosphere. Here, contemporary art unfolds as an aesthetic experience full of light, darkness, and openness. ([kunstgalerie.fuerth.de](https://kunstgalerie.fuerth.de/ausstellungen/aktuelle-ausstellungen))
