CULTURAL PRODUCTION

About

For decades, Lazarus Fine Prints was the home of Larry Lazarus' analogue black-and-white craft. What began as a darkroom eventually transformed into Gallery Lazarus, a vibrant exhibition space in the heart of Hamburg. The man who had spent his life bringing the work of others to light was, in the final chapter of the gallery, brought into the light himself. In 2020, Joya Erlebach took over the space, evolving from guardian of an archive into an intuitive Curator, Creative Director, and Cultural Producer. What followed was not a strategy. It was determination. Facing a global pandemic, severe structural building damage, and relentless operational hurdles, she secured cultural funding, executed a complete high-end interior redesign, and pioneered a pop-up hosting concept that brought brands, artists, and communities together. Following the passing of Larry Lazarus in February 2026 and the curation of his first solo exhibition, THE LAZARUS moves on. The same deep curation, creative direction and determination that built the physical space — applied now without fixed walls. To exhibitions, pop-ups and brand collaborations, anywhere in the world. Independent of the medium. Always with character.
