There's a certain freshness about someone who's just started out on their journey through life. And, it's even better when the person concerned is able to direct her own individual talent in a direction that speaks only from her. And one such young lady is the Viennese photographer Bianca Gadnik.

Her pictures, in their soft Austrian way contain not just a blend of pure human form, but also the right shades of colour which go from the heights of pure light to the depths of natural black! And, not only that! Her works also fully include the feelings of those in the picture. And, this is her secret! Her pictures are not only unique, but, more importantly, avant-garde, too. And, they have been coming for a very long time!

When she was just six years old her mother gave her a very simple camera. And Bianca did more than just play. Her very early shots were not cheese, they were, instead, clear indicators of the force of creativity that was growing within her. And this was her way, and not the well set path of uniform oneness. And, brushes, too, were part of her route to where she is now.

Being the daughter of the artist Brigitte Gadnik- Jiskra, Bianca's early influences were not those of conventionality, they were instead, paints, colour and paper. And, so it was that her gifts of seeing, retrieving and expression were able to grow and develop and come to fruition as a student of graphic arts. And, it is from art school that has recently graduated as a class A photographer. And, thankfully, her works are not staying hidden!

Starting this week on Tuesday the 21^st of January at 18.30 is an exhibition of Bianca's work at the VHS in Hietzing in Vienna. This exhibition will not only provide a valuable opportunity of seeing some of her work, but also the chance of getting to know her personally. And, once known, she will not be forgotten!

The future is hers, and there's something about her photos that realistically suggests that her style with its Viennese freshness will continue to lead and take others along in its wake. The past has now become now, And what we have is something exciting, a new way of looking that' s cutting with beauty by using that which has always been here. Light, colour, people and focus. New eyes are open, and this is simply the start!
