Scan.art is proud to announce its role as the official digital exhibition guide for the upcoming Kristian Schuller Grand Show at the Graz Convention Center. This unique exhibition, presented by Atelier Jungwirth in collaboration with Messe Congress Graz, features the vibrant and imaginative works of Kristian Schuller, one of the most renowned contemporary fashion photographers.
About Kristian Schuller
Born in Romania in 1970, Kristian Schuller grew up surrounded by art and culture. His father was a dramaturge and director, and his mother, an art teacher. Seeking to escape the drabness of communist life, Schuller emigrated to Germany, where he studied fashion design under Vivienne Westwood and photography with the legendary F.C. Gundlach. His work is characterized by a striking interplay of light and color, earning him a place in prestigious fashion magazines such as Vogue, Harper’s Bazaar, and Elle. Known for his sharp eye and dynamic compositions, Schuller gained wider fame through his appearances on Heidi Klum’s “Germany’s Next Topmodel.”
Together with his wife and creative partner Peggy Schuller, Kristian creates stunning, dreamlike scenes that blend fashion and art. Peggy’s costumes are integral to their creations, adding to the surreal and mysterious world that defines Schuller’s photography.
The Exhibition: A Feast of Color and Fantasy
Following the success of the Steve McCurry exhibitions in 2021 in Graz and 2023 in Vienna, scan.art is excited to support another major event at the Graz Convention Center. The Kristian Schuller Grand Show will occupy 2,200 m², featuring large-scale, backlit photographs in formats of 2 x 3 meters and 3 x 4.5 meters. This presentation amplifies the impact of Schuller’s images, showcasing both opulent, colorful works and more minimalist pieces from the last 20 years. Each photograph tells a vibrant, dynamic story, with recognizable subjects such as Sharon Stone, Cate Blanchett, Heidi Klum, and Penélope Cruz captured in Schuller’s distinct visual language.
