At Photofusion Gallery, London.  Bunker Series comprises large format colour photographs of the military structures built on the beaches of Normandy and England in World War II and explores the relationship between representation, perception and architecture.  This practice-led photographic research project, UNDERTAKEN BY Uta Kpgelsberger from Newcastle University, considers the concept of the real in photographic production. It is located in relation to post-modern discourses of simulation, the image and consciousness, and seeks to draw parallels between the mechanisms at play in the construction of images -particularly photographic ones - and the construction of architectures and the domesticated landscape. More specifically the research focuses on military defence structures and how they can be seen to embody societies' belief structures. Uta Kogelsberger has exhibited widely throughout the UK and internationally including Danielle Arnaud in London, The Museum of Fine Art in Houston, Texas and Laurence Miller Gallery in New York.  She has been awarded the Berwick Gymnasium Fellowship and the Stanley Picker Fellowship, and a monograph of her work was published in 2004 by PhotoNORTH.
