After almost 6 years in the charming Everton Road shophouse, ReDot Gallery is moving to new premises. From the 1st of January 2010, our increasing collection will get a bigger and brighter home where it hopefully will shine even more than it has at our current place. In the first show of the year, we will bring some of our best pieces out of the stock room. The old favourites and some new arrivals will be displayed in a striking manner, taking advantage of the space and high ceilings. It will be a wonderful new era for ReDot and Aboriginal Art in Singapore and we hope you will support us in this new endeavour.

After a long period during which the first generation of Bernd Becher's former students from Kunstakademie Dusseldorf left their mark on the field of photography in both the national and international art world, a lively and heterogeneous photography scene has emerged, one which cannot be said to stem from any single educational institution or region or be assigned to any predominant style. This exhibition on contemporary German Photography from the Institut fur Auslandsbeziehungen aims to take a cross section at this juncture, bringing the works of ten photographers into dialogue. The works ranges from pictures generated purely by digital imaging to series of photography to series of photographs by artists who feel indebted to the authorial tradition. The different approaches of the artistic works, which examine the reference to reality, are presented and juxtaposed, highlighting the artists' individual ways of finding their images. Participating Artists: Laurenz Berges, Albrecht Fuchs, Karin Geiger, Claus Goedicke, Uschi Huber, Matthias Koch, Wiebke Loeper, Nicola Meitzner, Peter Piller, Heidi Specker.
