"Gosbert Adler’s internationally acclaimed photography questions reality without claiming to offer definitive answers. His pictures depict seemingly trivial, mundane scenes. Always serial and limited to a few themes, they explore the specific aesthetic scope of photography, which sees itself as documentary and is aware of its absolute subjectivity. In his conscious choices of perspective, detail, focus and colour, Adler constantly reflects the possibilities and constraints of his medium."
