Leonid Keller
FIRST PERSON, Old School in Lakka
![]()
Julia Ossko (1978, Germany) and Eugen Schulz (1984, Kasachstan), live and work since 2013 as the artist duo Leonid Keller in Berlin, Germany. Against the background of a specific topic - for the most part socio-cultural and political in nature - Leonid Keller develops subjective dramaturgies that "put into space" a new reality. Their work is about a new way of imaging the social constructions shaping their generation and our world.
Inspired by an archive of images, by a local, amateur photographer from the 1950s, as well as Venetian and Greek ruins, that have a strong relation to the political history and today's identity of the islanders, Leonid Keller developed a site specific installation in the courtyard of the old school building in Lakka, Paxos.
