René Schädler
Statement
Schädler finds motifs that are restrained yet deeply moving. Minimalist photography characterizes his style and lends his images a clear, calm language. Several of his photographs have won international awards and bear witness to his consistent artistic signature. With his work in Carrara, René Schädler takes an in-depth look at a social issue, although initially the aesthetic effect of the material was the main focus. During further travels, the social and ecological consequences of marble mining also became the focus of his interest.
Bio
He began focusing on photography 10 years ago. Since then, he has spent a lot of time in nature but also in urban areas. Untouched nature or the sleeping city serve as his models, and he uses his camera as a technical tool. René Schädler lives in Baar, is married, and has two adult children.
