Florian Reinhardt German, b. 1978

“What you see are my stories and my development — as an artist and as a person. I started photographing details and signs about 20 years ago as a spontaneous, compulsive action rooted within – for me, taking a snap is like breathing: it’s about instinct and the inevitability.” 

Florian Reinhardt - Filmmaker & Photographer

Born in Bonn, Germany, in 1978, Florian Reinhardt built a successful career as a filmmaker, director, and producer with over 20 years of experience in movies, TV series, and commercial films. Though widely recognized for his work in reality television, his true passion lies in visual storytelling.

A decade ago, he turned to photography, focusing on a singular motif: EXIT signs. What began in 2008 with a broken-lit EXIT sign in Miami evolved into a worldwide collection of over 1,000 images. To Reinhardt, these signs symbolize movement, escape, and transition-universal markers that mirror life's journey. Through his lens, EXIT is more than a direction; it's a personal and artistic philosophy.
