About the artist

Hubertus Hamm

HUBERTUS HAMM

Born 1950 in Werdohl, Sauerland, Germany
Lives and works in Munich, Germany

Trained as a photographer, Hubertus Hamm departs from the beaten track of classic photography, often even forgoing the very medium in which he was schooled. However, his artistic approach moves away from classic photography, reflecting on modalities of the image by exploring and transcending the limits of the medium in terms of three-dimensionality and materiality.
