Ulrich Ackermann - The Gruyère District from bird’s-eye view From the 14th of February until the 18th of April 2004 With his aerial views of the Gruyère District, the photographer Ulrich Ackermann establishes new dimensions. Using a panoramic camera, he restores the majestic grandeur of the Préalpes Fribourgeoises and, with an unusual precision, fixes their relief on film. The snowy mountain peaks and the criss-crossing of the light and the clouds create a fascinating atmosphere and compose photographs of dreamlike beauty. Ulrich Ackermann was born in 1947. After commercial studies, he learnt the photography in Hugo Frutig’s workshop in Bern. The human being, the animals and mostly landscapes of the world are his favourite subjects. His photographs have been published in many books, magazines and calendars. In collaboration with Ilford Imaging Switzerland GmbH (french), The Castle of Gruyères presents a selection of 25 large size photographs realised between 2001-2003.
