Miguel Rothschild

In the monograph with the title Premonition, Miguel Rothschild (*1963) presents a selection of works from his two most recent series. In them, the Berlin-based, Argentinian artist occupies himself with spirits and the apocalypse. The mystically connoted photographs  of skies and forests are given a second layer of meaning—both in terms of content and the visual—through the use of burn holes. Here the spirits of the forest ascend between the treetops, there it is a baroque or romantic sky that receives these demonic and at the same time alluring souls. Rothschild’s ambiguous visions prompt us to interrogate our relationship to nature.
