"Thomas Ruff (born in 1958), from the Becher class of internationally renowned photo artists, is a master of conceptual photography. His work, which contains neither narrative nor anecdotal moments and makes equal use of analog and digital production techniques, is an expression of a thoroughly scientific working method, which dissects its object, reassembles it and in so doing combines analysis and original creation. He became known in the 1980s with oversized and hyperrealist color portraits of his friends and fellow students at Kunstakademie Dèusseldorf. It was he who discovered the Diasec process for photography, a method borrowed from advertising of framing photographic prints and thus liberating the photograph from the ghetto of print cabinets.Since then, large-format photographic works have been proudly displayed on museum and gallery walls worldwide. [Title] presents selected photographs from all of the artist's series to date, starting with his small Interiors and large Portraits, to the starry skies and night shots, the nudes, recycled from pornographic material he found on the Internet, and abstract Substrates, to his stellar compositions based on astronomical photographs from ESO and NASA."--P [4] of cover.

gebunden. Condizione: Sehr gut. 240 S. Thomas Ruff, geb. 1958, international renommierter deutscher Fotokünstler, ist ein Meister der konzeptuellen Fotografie in Serien. Bekannt wurde er Anfang der 80er Jahre mit übergroßen und hyperrealistischen, farbigen Portraits seiner Künstlerfreunde und durch die Entdeckung des Diasec-Verfahrens, einer technischen Methode, fotografische Bilder zu gerahmten Objekten zu versteifen und damit die Fotografie aus dem Ghetto druckgrafischer Kabinette zu befreien. Großformatige Bildobjekte erobern seitdem weltweit die Museumswände der Grandes Galeries. Unsere Monografie versammelt ausgesuchte Beispiele aller bisher erstellten Bildserien von Thomas Ruff, beginnend mit den kleinen Interieurs, den großen Portraits, den Architekturaufnahmen, den Sternenhimmeln, den abstrakten Substraten, den Nudes, die er aus pornografischem Material aus dem Internet recycelt hat, bis zu den stellaren Landschaften, seinem neuesten Projekt. Das Buch mit Essays von Thomas Weski, Professor an der Hochschule für Grafik und Buchkunst, Leipzig, und Okwui Enwezor, seit Oktober 2011 künstlerischer Direktor am Haus der Kunst, München, erscheint aus Anlass einer großen Thomas Ruff-Retrospektive im Haus der Kunst.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. "German photo artist Thomas Ruff is a master of conceptual serial photography. He made a name for himself in the early eighties with oversized, superrealistic color portraits of his artist friends and as a pioneer of the Diasec process used to mount photographic images onto acrylic glass, thereby obviating frames, liberating photography from the print gallery and paving the way to the "grand gallery" museum walls for large-format photos. This collection presents selected works from Thomas Ruff's large-format series, beginning with his small Interiors, the large Portraits, his Architectural Photos, the Starry Skies, his abstract Substrata, the Nudes, which make use of pornographic material taken from the internet, and finally his latest creation: Stellar Landscapes. The book features essays by Thomas Weski and Okwui Enwezor and appears in conjunction with an extensive Thomas Ruff retrospective exhibition at the Haus der Kunst in Munich.". Codice articolo 99468
