Photographs (1978-1985)
Christine Furuya-Gössler

Christine Furuya-Gössler captures her reality with an almost enigmatic distance. Photographs (1978–1985) brings together seven years of photography, revealed for the very first time. Primarily known through the eyes of her husband, Seiichi Furuya, for whom she was the muse, Christine began taking photographs in 1978, when they met. As a photographer of reality, she offers a unique vision of her private life and her relationship with the world. Furuya-Gössler photographs her family, moments of sharing and celebration, and her travels, all while maintaining a distance from anyone who tries to capture her essence. The palpable melancholy that pervades her images provides a glimpse into her inner world, yet it does not allow us to fully grasp or understand it. Composed of more than 120 photographs, Photographs (1978–1985) showcases for the first time the work of Christine Furuya-Gössler, which has never been exhibited before. This monograph serves as the first posthumous collection of the photographer’s work, covering a creative period of seven years, interrupted by her death in 1985.
