Synopsis
For more than 20 years Michael Ruetz photographed one landscape scene, a peaceful panorama of a mountain range, from the same point of view. In spring in the clearest sunlight and during thunderstorms under darkening clouds, at the cusp of a New Year and on quiet clear, starry nights, at twilight in murky fog, this apparently never-changing landscape has many faces. Ruetzs patient observation and focus on unchanging repetition reveals the singularity of the photographic moment. Eye on Infinity lets the eye linger without end. Michael Ruetz, born in Berlin in 1940, completed his studies in Sinology and then turned to photography. He spent 13 years abroad and, until 2005, he was a professor for Communication Design at the Braunschweig University of Art (Hochschule für Bildende Künste). He has been awarded the Otto Steinert Prize, the Villa Massimo Prize, and the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in Paris. Ruetz is a member of the Academy of the Arts, Berlin. Steidl has published his books Sichtbare Zeit, Das Willy-Brandt-Haus, Bibliothek der Augen, Cosmos, WindAuge, Eye on Time and Die unbequeme Zeit

hardcover. Condition: Fine. Prima edizione (First Edition). Fotografie in bianco e nero di Michael Ruetz. Contributi di Barbara Straka e dell'Autore in inglese e tedesco . Cm 30x30. pp. 256. . Ottimo (Fine). . Prima edizione (First Edition). . Per più di 20 anni Michael Ruetz ha fotografato un'unica scena di paesaggio, un tranquillo panorama di una catena montuosa, dallo stesso punto di vista. In primavera alla luce del sole più limpida e durante i temporali sotto le nuvole che si scuriscono, al culmine di un nuovo anno e nelle tranquille notti limpide e stellate, al crepuscolo nella nebbia torbida, questo paesaggio apparentemente in continuo mutamento ha molte facce. La paziente osservazione di Ruetz e l'attenzione alla ripetizione immutabile rivelano la singolarità del momento fotografico. Eye on Infinity lascia l'occhio indugiare senza fine. Book.
