Since 2018, Jonas Burkhalter (*1983) has been living partly in New York, where he is working on a photographic series: At first glance, sober shots of everyday American life, which unfold a density and wealth of information upon closer inspection. Through his meticulously constructed image compositions and with an extraordinarily fine sense, he draws attention to a world whose order seems to be shaken by current global events. 

The exhibition "Distance Black" combines objects and large format photographs of the Zurich artist.
