Joseph Wolfgang Ohlert
The artist Joseph Wolfgang Ohlert was born in 1991 in Prien am Chiemsee (Bavaria/Germany). After graduating from Rudolf Steiner School in Schwäbisch Hall he did various internships working in the set design department of movie productions and theaters as well as an assistant director.
In 2012 he began his studies at the renowned Ostkreuz School of Photography, from which he graduated in 2015. His work is being published in various European and American magazines. His images are regularly exhibited in group and solo shows around the world.
Early 2016 he self published his first Photobook „GENDER AS A SPECTRUM“ which has received a great amount of media attention and been shown in various exhibitions. Working exclusively with analogue photography, his key priority is always to present the people who sit for him as themselves. Parallel to his work in the photographic field he has most recently dedicated himself more strongly to artistic projects – Ohlert hopes to offer a platform to young creatives with a series of self-published art books and magazines.
In 2017 he opened his own gallery/studiospace „P7 GALLERY“ in Berlin Mitte, Prenzlauer Allee 7, where different Events from Art & Photography take place.[1]
Joseph Wolfgang Ohlert is exploring the limitations of this binary interpretation with his first book, Gender as a Spectrum. Through a series of portraits and interviews, Ohlert unveils the intimate variations of sex and identity. His artistic statement is based on the two years he spent traveling and meeting individuals who have pride in defining themselves with their own medium.[2]
