Uta Barth is a contemporary German
photographer. She is best known for her
“empty” images that border on painterly
abstraction. Barth carefully renders blurred
backgrounds, cropped frames and the
natural qualities of light to capture
incidental and fleeting moments, those
which exist almost exclusively within our
periphery.
Barth takes a deliberate disregard for both
the conventional photographic subject and
point-and-shoot role of the camera. She
works to delicately deconstructs beautiful
painterly quite emotive imagery.

Below are some helpful video links to support you with your camera.
They are attached to your Google Classroom and also have been
posted on the Beaumont Art Blog
-You may want to put your camera on Manual Focus and also consider
different Aperture Settings.
-Think about taking photographs at different times of day considering
natural and artificial lighting and how this will impact your shot. Barth
often explores lighting through windows how they create light shadows
on walls.
-Think carefully about the composition of your photograph. Barth
doesn’t always do the obvious!
Consider how you can create your own images inspired by Uta Barth…

8. 1. Continue the following tasks on your Powerpoint called
‘Photography Influences and Skills (with your name)’ Make sure the
Powerpoint is set to A3.
2. Complete Powerpoint slides on the Photographer Uta Barth. You will
have to explore a range of websites to get information on this
Photographer but remember your descriptions and opinions are key to
getting a good mark for this. You must explain how you will use her
work to take your own shoot! Please use the support sheets you have
at the back of your sketchbooks (remember it is useful to evaluate a
specific photograph in depth and detail). You can also use the ‘Deal With
It’ slides on the previous powerpoint to support you with your analysis.
3. Take a shoot exploring Uta Barth make sure you consider your
camera settings and composition (use the guides on the power point
and the You Tube clips to support you with this). Present this on a series
of power point slides including contact sheets with analysis and at least
three enlargements (if you have facilities these could be edited a little
on photoshop (no worries if not though).
