Thomas Ruff - Stellar Landscapes
Seller: artbook-service, Berlin, Germany
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Thomas Ruff gehört zu den international bekanntesten deutschen Fotokünstlern der Gegenwart. In mittlerweile über zwei Dutzend Serien hat er wie kein anderer zeitgenössischer Künstler die Grenzen des Mediums Fotografie erforscht und definiert. Der Katalog nimmt besonders vier Serien aus Thomas Ruffs Oeuvre in den Fokus: Die Serie Sterne, zwischen 1989 und 1992 entstanden, die zycles von 2007, die Serie cassini von 2008/2009 und aktuelle Arbeiten aus der Serie ma.r.s. Schon seit 1989 hat Thomas Ruff die eigene Produktion von Fotografien zugunsten der Arbeit mit vorhandenem Material zurückgestellt. Die Beschäftigung mit strukturellen und inhaltlichen Fragestellungen des Mediums steht im Mittelpunkt seines Werks. Ausgangsmaterial für alle gezeigten Fotografien war wissenschaftliches Bildmaterial, das zum Teil frei zugänglich im Internet zur Verfügung steht. Während der Eingriff Thomas Ruffs bei der Serie sterne nur im Bereich des gewählten Bildausschnitts lag, bearbeitete er das Ausgangsmaterial der neueren Serien stärker: Für die Serien cassini und ma.r.s. verwendete Thomas Ruff Aufnahmen verschiedener NASA-Missionen. Er bearbeitete sie digital, ergänzte die Farben, manipulierte Kontraste und Bildausschnitte. Die ursprünglich sachlichen, schwarz-weißen Aufnahmen erhalten durch Ruffs Farbbearbeitung einen neuen Charakter: Es sind malerisch wirkende, ästhetisierte Bilder, die in ihrer abstrakten Schönheit zu Projektionsflächen unserer Vorstellungen werden. 144 pp. Deutsch, Englisch.

Thomas Ruff : stellar landscapes.
Seller: Kloof Booksellers & Scientia Verlag, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Condition: as new. Text by Melanie Bono. Heidelberg : Kehrer, 2011. Hardcover. Dustjacket. 143 pp. Ills. English & German text. - Thomas Ruff is one of the most internationally renowned contemporary German photo artists. In over two dozen series, he has explored and defined the boundaries of the medium of photography like no other contemporary artist. The catalog focuses particularly on four series from Thomas Ruff's oeuvre: the "Sterne" series, created between 1989 and 1992, the "zycles" series from 2007, the "cassini" series from 2008/2009, and current works from the "ma.r.s." series. Since 1989, Thomas Ruff has put aside his own photographic production in favor of working with existing material. The exploration of structural and content-related issues of the medium is at the heart of his work. The source material for all of the photographs shown was scientific imagery, some of which is freely available online. While Thomas Ruff's intervention in the "sterne" series was limited to the selected image detail, he reworked the source material of the more recent series more extensively: For the "cassini" and "ma.r.s." series, Thomas Ruff used images from various NASA missions. He digitally edited them, added colors, and manipulated contrasts and image details. Condition : as new copy. ISBN 9783868282610. Keywords : PHOTOGRAPHY, astronomy. Seller Inventory # 301872
