Vera Mercer reinterprets the classical still life and transforms the traditional genre into a contemporary visual language of extraordinary visual power. Her neo-baroque photographs combine crayfish, fish, game, flowers and antique accessories into opulent, artfully staged tableaux full of color, detail and sensual presence.
Vera Mercer was born in Berlin in 1936 and made a name for herself as a photographer in Paris in the 1960s. She was deeply rooted in artists' circles and documented the work and lives of important personalities of the avant-garde. Since the early 2000s she has devoted herself again increasingly to still life, for which she is internationally known.
