RALF DREIER
Tuscon, December 6th, 2025 until Febuary 28th, 2026 The pictures in the exhibition "Ralf Dreier" in the Decode Gallery show a small selection of my work from the last few years. The exhibition was the result of a competition with the theme ‘Square’. As the square is my favourite picture format, it made sense for me to take part in this competition. However, I was somewhat surprised that my pictures were selected as the winners for this exhibition. But I was all the more pleased with the result.

Siegen, May 15th until July 13th, 2025
The photos in the exhibition inSIEGEN clearly stand out from colourful postcard motifs in that they do not advertise the beauty of Siegen in bright, loud colours. In fact, the images shown are less about the buildings or streets photographed and more about the moods that are to be conveyed and communicated. The aim is to convey a thoughtful, sometimes somewhat melancholy, but never gloomy or even depressive image of Siegen in rather quiet tones. The buildings, or even just details of them, are usually depicted in minimalist, black and white photographs with a lot of grey sky. Occasionally, the sky takes up such a large part of the picture that it could give the impression that it is the main motif. In reality, however, it is only intended to support the main motif and help to bring some calm into the picture. Another important point in many of the exhibited pictures is the somewhat unusual perspective and the chosen framing. This keeps the somewhat restless elements, e.g. the many details at street level, out of the picture and at the same time builds up some tension.
For those who were unable to visit the exhibition, all of the images on display can be viewed online here.
