Hardback or Cased Book. Condition: New. The History of Cheltenham, and Account of Its Environs. Book.

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.…

Published on the occasion of a 2004 exhibition at K21 Kunstsammlung Nordrhein-Westfalen, Düsseldorf. Near Fine (bump to lower corner (affecting the boards and text block, and moderate surface rubbing). From the publisher: "Born in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1966, Paul Pfeiffer is considered one of the shooting stars of 20th century art. He has attracted widespread attention with his digitally processed photographs and videos in which he dissects, fragments, and eradicates familiar images of 'global icons,' thus raising questions about their identities, their origins, and approaches to the reconstruction of such idols in a world dominated by mass media. In his 24 Landscapes(2000), for example, he eliminates the figure of Marilyn Monroe from famous George Barris film stills, thereby diverting the viewer's gaze to the romantic landscape scenes in the background. Beginning with Pfeiffer's Self-Portrait as a Fountain (2000), this book presents readers with a selection of the artist's videos, sculptures, and photographs realized within the past three years.".…
