SynopsisNowhere is the question of existence so tantalizing as in the isolated landscape of a mountainous region. The sublimity of the natural world - thematized since the 18th century - reverberates throughout this volume of photographs. Markus Gisler has an eye for the unusual, the surprising and the touching. He has a particular appreciation for the in-between tones: foggy, snowy or rainy days, mystical mountain ridges, dramatic cloud formations and gloomy twilights. With carefully conceived compositions, with horizontal lines and aligning elements, the photographer creates a magic that is all his own. The photographs from the Alpine landscape are potent images of nature that transcend typical renderings of structures, forms and landscapes., Nowhere is the question of existence so tangible as in the solitude of the mountains. Photographer Markus Gisler has an eye for the unusual, the surprising and the poignant. He is fascinated by shades and nuances: foggy, snowy or rainy days, mystically overcast mountain chains, dramatic cloud formations and eerie twilight moods. Gisler's photographs are powerful images of nature that allow the observer to actively share in the diversity and intensity of the Alpine world. The sublimity of nature reverberates throughout this volume.
