Silber by Frank Mädler may be understood as a reflection on romances and affairs that lay under a sheet of time and dust – once ‘golden moments’ now silvered with age. The series derives from postcards which the artist collected over several years in Spain, Portugal and Italy. Weathered by sun and rain and neglected on the rack, Mädler enlarges the photographs on Kodak Metallic paper, transforming kitsch ephemera into enduring works of art.
