With his long-term project "Icons of Research", photographer Christian Lünig aims to link the aesthetics of modern research facilities with the creative parallels between photography and science.
With his own visual language and an affinity for science and technology from an early age, he developed a new visibility of science: not as an abstract system, but as a sensually tangible, visually impressive and culturally embedded activity.
The photographs tell stories - of curiosity and failure, of precision and chance, of the beauty of the inconspicuous. They make science visible - and at the same time comprehensible in the true sense of the word: as something that touches.
The award-winning works have been travelling around the world for several years with the group exhibition "CIVILIZATION - THE WAY WE LIVE NOW".
