Synopsis
"With his largest, most revealing retrospective and a major traveling exhibition, German photographer Thomas Struth's continuing evolution is on display." -Carol Kino, Wall Street Journal
Since the 1990s, Thomas Struth has been one of the best-known and internationally successful photographers of the German art scene. Struth studied painting under Gerhard Richter and photography under Bernd and Hilla Becher, a combination that decisively influenced his vision.
This volume is a compilation of representative photographs from each series of works in Struth's oeuvre: street photographs from the 1970s and '80s; empathetic portraits (particularly of families); large-format "museum photographs"; nature studies; jungle photographs (New Pictures from Paradise); and, from the latest series, images from the world of science. As this compendium of his work shows, Struth has succeeded in setting new aesthetic standards thanks to his great precision, chromatic clarity, sound sense of composition and intellectual profundity.
Thomas Struth (born 1954) studied with the Bechers at the Düsseldorf Academy of Art. Struth is today a leading figure in German arts and international photography. He lives in Berlin and is represented in the US by Marian Goodman Gallery.

Review
With his largest, most revealing retrospective and a major traveling exhibition, German photographer Thomas Struth's continuing evolution is on display.--Carol Kino "Wall Street Journal "
Deceptively simple, conceptually taut works... allowing us to see people wrapped up in an aesthetic experience while we are engaged in some variation of that experience. They overlay various types of viewing, encapsulating those rare moments when words fall away.--Andrew Russeth "Art News "
