Art in the Kontor - Roman Thomas
The creative way to bring agriculture to Berlin!
Photography as the medium of choice
We have succeeded in developing a concept that combines art with the diversity of tasks and activities in the field of agriculture, research and breeding at KWS and in bringing it to the Kontor in Berlin, where it now creates atmosphere, fascinates, but also informs, thus enriching the working environment and our daily work. While developing the concept, it became clear pretty fast that the medium for this task could only be photography!
Photography – poetically also „painting with light“: By combining light, space, and nature purposefully, the photographer manages to create a unique atmosphere around a motif.
Each floor of the Kontor is thus given its own theme
From different photo shoots, which took place at certain seasonal periods of different crops in the field, as well as from the work areas of research in the laboratory and breeding in the greenhouses, we have made a selection from over 500 pictures of the artist and photographer Roman Thomas.

"It’s this contrast between a city of millions and the human loneliness of the individual in our current society that fascinates me again and again!"
