PHOTO BASEL 2025

PHOTO BASEL 2025 - BOOTH 6
This year at Photo Basel, we are proud to present a refined and thought-provoking selection of photographic works by Jacob Gils, Stephan Schnedler, and Lise Johansson — three artists whose practices offer powerful visual narratives and conceptual depth. Our presentation reflects a strong commitment to contemporary photography that merges craftsmanship, emotion, and innovation.
Jacob Gils (Denmark)
Jacob Gils is internationally recognized for his distinctive style that blurs the lines between photography and painting. He has exhibited widely across Europe, the US, and Asia, with works held in prominent private and institutional collections. Gils is best known for his series Movement and Limit To Your Love, which explore perception, memory, and temporality through layered, in-camera techniques.
At Photo Basel 2025, we present new and recent works from these celebrated series, including urban and nature scenes from Santa Monica, Palma, Frederiksdal, and Copenhagen. His use of Japanese Awagami paper and archival materials underscores his commitment to both traditional craftsmanship and experimental process.
Stephan Schnedler (Denmark)
Stephan Schnedler’s work occupies a quiet and poetic space between architecture, minimalism, and the psychological dimensions of interiority. His background in design and visual studies informs a meticulous approach to composition and light.
With Sand #2 (2024), Schnedler offers a cinematic and atmospheric meditation on solitude and space. His work has been shown in curated group exhibitions across Europe, and he continues to draw attention for his subtle but deeply resonant visual language.
Lise Johansson (Denmark)
Lise Johansson is an award-winning photographic artist whose work frequently explores themes of identity, isolation, and constructed realities. Known for her meticulous staging and use of surreal elements, Johansson’s photographs evoke a cinematic mood and emotional tension.
Within Frames #2 (2024) continues her exploration of domestic spaces and psychological landscapes. Johansson has exhibited in leading photography festivals and fairs, and her work is regularly featured in international publications and private collections.
