Traveling around the world and capturing the impressions on analogue black and white film was always a passion of the internationally successful master photographer Gerald Berghammer. The idea was to go back to analogue photography to create images that decelerate, contrary to our fast-paced digital world. During Berghammer’s master course, analogue photography was the subject of his final thesis in 2011. The quality of the images was convincing and laid the foundations for SILVERFINEART. In the years that followed, the matter was intensively studied to create photographic art at the highest level. Besides the craft of photography itself, all negatives were developed by hand in the darkroom. Afterwards the negatives were selected and only those shots which met the high-quality standards of the photographer were included in the portfolio. Due to COVID and its influence on supply chains and logistic and the resulting lack of analogue films and developers, Berghammer adapted to the new circumstances and invested in modern digital technology. Also in the digital world of Photography Gerald Berghammer is dedicated to high quality standards and image resolution - not only in black and white, nowadays also in Colour. Convince yourself of the quality and passion behind SILVERFINEART and browse through the portfolio or visit the gallery in the seventh district of Vienna. The photo artist will be happy to help you find the perfect piece for your home or office.
