In the historic railway station building of Oberbozen, Silent Observations presents a selection of analogue photographs by Oswald Kofler, a Bolzano-born artist and photographer who devoted more than five decades to photography.
With a subtle and poetic eye, Kofler captured people, landscapes, and quiet details of everyday life. His black-and-white photographs in particular are distinguished by their precision, atmosphere, and graphic clarity.
Since childhood, the Ritten plateau was an important retreat and place of work for Kofler — a close connection that is powerfully reflected in the photographs on display.
The exhibition is open until 8 November, Monday to Friday from 9 am to 5 pm, and Saturdays from 9 am to 2 pm.
Idea and concept: Ursula Schnitzer
