UNDER THE RADAR

Andrea Stappert’ photographs make up a sizeable visual archive of the international art scene, which she has been observing with her uncompromising eye since the 1980s.
After studying painting, she received her first photography commissions through her association with Martin Kippenberger and has kept returning to the arena of photography ever since. As an artist and not a trained photographer, Stappert uses innovative, very personal means of expression, far removed from the usual set pieces of portrait photography.
Under the Radar brings together many previously unpublished images, and provides a detailed view of her comprehensive photographic work.
