PASCAL DOROTHEE, France. At the age of 13 he began to study audio-visual techniques and studied the old technique of silver photography.

(pascal-dorothee.com)
MARLEN PEIX, Germany. She finds her motifs in everyday life. Supposedly secondary or even inconspicuous becomes by analog and digital recording and editing techniques to abstract picture compositions of light, color and form. Since 2008 she pursues an international exhibition activity. She usually works very experimentally. In the course of time, she has developed a very different and, in some cases, very contrasting pictorial language. (marlen-peix.de)
ELISABETH RASS, Austria. The love of photography was put into her cradle. Since many years she follows a continuous engagement and visualization of the apparently everyday occurrences. Since 2010 she produces an international exhibition activity. The camera as the preserver of the moment, short moments captured, unadulterated. (elisabethrass.com)
BERNHARD SCHINKO, Austria. He finds his artistic expression in textile art, painting, object art and photography. Since 1985 he pursues an international exhibition activity. In his photographic works the boundaries between realistic representation, post-processed and alienated photography and painting disappear. (textile-art.at)
HANNAH SCHWANZER, Austria, studied at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. Since 1978 she produces international exhibition activity and numerous publications. She illustrates pictorial illusions of psychographic moments and plays with the symbolic effect of colors and spaces. (hannah-schwanzer.at)
MANFREDO WEIHS, Austria. Photography is his life and he learned it from scratch. During many years working as a press photographer, he also used the camera as an experimental tool. Together with the artist Daisy Gold, he founded the studio coolpool in Vienna in 2013. His experimental work shows a great technical know-how and a lot of attention to details. (ateliercoolpool.at)
