Sophie Mercedes Köchert: Salzkammergut Selected II

Sophie Mercedes Köchert, is an Austrian photographer who was responsible for the impressive advertising subjects for the Capital of Culture year Bad Ischl Salzkammergut 2024.

However, the exhibition at the Francisco Carolinum focuses not only on commissioned photography, but above all on Köchert's artistic visual language, which is characterized by her creative approach and aesthetic sensibility.

The exhibition invites visitors to explore the complexity of Köchert's work and discover the artistic forms of expression behind the commercial photographs. The focus is on as yet unpublished photographs taken during the Capital of Culture year. The show is complemented by a personal search for traces of the artist in the Salzkammergut - one year after the major event.
