Biography Béatrice Helg was born in Geneva, Switzerland in 1956. As poetic as they are spiritual, her photographs show strangely beautiful universes of shadow and of light.īéatrice Helg was born in Geneva in 1956. Beatrice Helg (born 1956) is a Swiss photographer. Drawing on a passion for music and a marked sensitivity to notions of space and time, to architecture, and to the staging of plays and operas, the artist creates monumental spaces in which sculpture, painting, installation, and light interact. Helg’s oeuvre has a singular position in the photographic tradition of “constructed images.” Remote from hyperrealist or narrative imagery, her work displays abstract forms and luminous worlds. This exhibition coincides with the publication of a comprehensive monograph devoted to her work ( 5 Continents Editions, Milan).
