Gisela Gamper has been photographing and exhibiting for the last 25 years. Since the early 1990's she has employed photo montage and more recently digital manipulation to merge a variety of textures with female torsos. The constructed torsos take existence into themselves, mapping it, transforming it, and finally releasing it, both within and beyond the reality of the body.

In 1999 Gisela Gamper's digital photographs "Urban Dresses" were exhibited at CEPA Gallery in Buffalo, NY. The Rice Gallery, Albany Institute of History & Art included her prints in their exhibit "Attention to Detail".

Since 1999 Gamper has been collaborating and performing with composer David Gamper. For their collaboration See Hear Now, Gisela collects and edits digital video imagery which she mixes and projects in concert with David's improvised music.

Among her grants and awards are two Fellowship Grants from the Vermont Council on the Arts in 1985 and 1990, and the Hasselblad Cover Award in 1991. For two concurrent solo exhibtions in New Orleans in 1997, the Contemporary Artists Collection of Station Hill Arts by Barrytown, Ltd. published Fabrications, a catalogue of her photographs with text by Rachel Pollack.

Gisela Gamper currently lives and works in New York City.
