Extended until March 15, 2026!

Artist Talk with Stefan Draschan on Friday, November 7

Due to the great response from the public, the exhibition "Stefan Draschan. 11 seconds" with 22 works by photographer Stefan Draschan, born in Austria in 1979, will be extended until Sunday, March 15, 2026.

On Friday, November 7, 2025 at 6 p.m., art lovers can experience the photographer in person during an artist talk in the SLM's lecture hall. Art, context and perfect timing: Stefan Draschan talks about his work, shares spontaneous encounters and reflects on chance moments in dialog with curator Sarvenaz Ayooghi.
Admission is free! Registration requested: eventslm@mail.aachen.de

Stefan Draschan is a reliable museum-goer who travels to many European museums. He spends hours in the often magnificent museum halls and is very familiar with the collections. An art connoisseur who follows a hunting instinct with his camera with one goal: to find the perfect pair of pictures.
In his fascinating snapshots, he combines people with masterpieces from European museums, whose clothing, gestures or hairstyles harmonize with the exhibits in an astonishing way. In the "People Matching Artworks" series, which has become internationally known on social networks, he shows matching pairs of images, allowing the past and present to merge with each other and thus completely redefining what it means to see and be seen. His works are surrounded by a special aura, for example when people lose themselves in the golden grounds of medieval panel painting or the light dramaturgy of a collection room allows the backs of heads to become part of the image carrier. Irony always plays an important role here.

His feel for the decisive moment, the moment décisif, to use Henri Cartier-Bresson's words, makes his photographs as unique as the short average time he has to take them:
11 seconds!
