George Peabody Library:
Formerly the Library of the Peabody Institute of the City of Baltimore, the library’s collection dates from the founding of the Peabody Institute in 1857. In that year, George Peabody, a Massachusetts-born philanthropist, dedicated the Peabody Institute to the citizens of Baltimore in appreciation of their “kindness and hospitality.”
The library building opened in 1878 and was designed by Baltimore architect Edmund G. Lind, in collaboration with the Peabody Institute’s first provost, Dr. Nathaniel H. Morison. The stack room contains five tiers of ornamental cast-iron balconies, which rise dramatically to the skylight 61 feet above the floor.
The library contains 300,000 volumes mainly from the 19th century, with strengths in religion, British art, architecture, topography and history; American history, biography, and literature; Romance languages and literature; history of science; and geography, exploration, and travel.
Artist Bio:
Born in Munich, Germany, Christian Voigt lives and works in Hamburg and The South of France. His current studio is situated in Hamburg. Christian Voigt works with large-format cameras, both digital and analogue. He experiments with new camera techniques and makes the best use of the digital medium. In the museum edition, his large-format pictures can measure as much as eight meters in width. But his strictly limited editions also come in sizes which customers and collectors can hang on walls of more modest sizes.
Christian Voigt has developed a language capable of telling new stories. He continually works to refine a pictorial idiom, the stories he wants to tell, the feelings he convey. This is visible in his pictures; Landscape and architecture are his principal areas of interest, but he also does portraits and nudes.
The travels associated with his projects and places call for concentration, for the ability to get to grips with people, with their history and their religion.
"My pictures are created with the camera, not on the computer," he says, with a reference to the complicated technology and processing that goes into his creations. "But without the computer technology of today, the pictures couldn’t be crafted into their final form." Solo shows and Art Fairs have been staged in Basel, Hamburg, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, London, Saint Tropez, Amsterdam, and Madrid.

The Admont Abbey Library near Vienna is one of the great works of art from the late Baroque period in Europe where different genres of art (architecture, frescoes, sculptures, writings & printed works) have merged into a unity. The library comprises around 200,000 volumes, whose most precious treasures are the more than 1,400 manuscripts (from the 8th century) and the 530 incunabula (early prints up to the year 1500). Christian Voigt is the first artist to be allowed to photograph the Admont Abbey Library after its extensive renovation and after the complete return of the historic book collection.
