These photos are from a temporary exhibition at BC: Chronostasis by Axel Hütte. As they are both photographers, I personally believe that Hütte knows Ara Güler and his works, since Mr. Güler is the person who drew the attention of media and thus public on Aphrodisiasis.

An essential aspect of Axel Hütte's artistic work is traveling, which is spending time on the road to find fitting motives and places that satisfy the artist s imagination. This does not necessarily mean always choosing spectacular places like the Arctic, the huge megacities of Asia, or rain forests. Exemplaries for his particular approach are two of Hütte's series where he puts his preferred topic, the landscape, into the focus. These pictures are not about the landscape itself but landscape as an artistic construct. The results include series, such as Jacobigarten, showing a nearby park scenery and the interplay between impression and abstraction. Even when Hütte limits the color in his photographs to a narrow range, as in the pictures of the Niederwald region (Rheingau series), he successfully constructs the landscape in such an intensity that the observer is instantly touched by the atmosphere they emanate.
