Nik Erik Neubauer / White Smoke, Brown Glare

Nik Erik Neubauer (1994) is a visual artist and a photographer from Ljubljana. In his work, he deals with the intimate social issues of our everyday life with a contemporary documentary approach.
The exhibition White Smoke, Brown Glare presents a series of photographs taken during the artist's month-long residency in New York. In his characteristically raw street style, Neubauer captured scenes of everyday life in this iconic, mythicised city - the economic and cultural capital of the world, where profound class and racial divisions, as well as the glamour and squalor of contemporary society, are evident at every turn. »Neubauer's photography is defined by social engagement of the kind that can only be achieved through a generous dose of the old-fashioned humanism so characteristic of documentary photography in the second half of the 20th century.« — excerpt from the text by Miha Colner
