Brion sur Ource, 2018 ©ELGER ESSER

Bruce Silverstein is very proud to announce its first solo exhibition with Elger Esser titled Inherent Time. The exhibition will run from February 27 – April 11, 2020.

Esser is most widely recognized for his distinct approach to the genre of landscape photography.  in his production of eternal images imbued with the sensitive vision of a Romantic. Rendered both in large-format and more intimately-scaled compositions, his serene, verdant photographs depict moments rooted historically, yet also in the present. Esser’s work builds upon a rich tradition of 19th century photography characterized by the grand Realist landscapes of French masters Gustave Le Gray and Édouard Baldus, as well as the great chronicler of the American west, Carleton Watkins. Whereas the approach of these forbearers realized still photographs entwined to their respective eras, Esser's timeless images are detached from such specificity, evoking the everlasting.
