Lillian Birnbaum
Photographer
Lillian Birnbaum uses photography as another means of expression besides developing and producing movies through her company Peartree Entertainment.
Photography is for her an adventure of the mind, to mirror the identity of mankind, of life, the simple and the obvious. It is an expression of inhabiting the world.
Lillian’s photo works examine the tension between the documentary nature of photography and its evocative narrative elements.
Exhibitions have included Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac, Museum der Moderne Salzburg, Johanna Breede PHOTOKUNST, Galerie Heike Curtze in Salzburg, Galerie Heike Curtze und Petra Seiser, Bildhalle in Kilchberg, Zurich, Musée de l’Élysée, Lausanne, Switzerland, Galerie Esther Woerdehoff.
