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.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. Minor shelf wear. Else a bright, clean copy. Examine the photographic series of celebrated contemporary photographer Thomas Ruff. Thomas Ruff is one of the most important contemporary German photographers living today. Studying under Bernd and Hilla Becher, Ruff…experimented with large-format printing. This comprehensive book focuses on his photographic series from the past twenty years. These series are based on found photographs from a variety of sources. The source materials range from early nineteenth century photography to machinemade photographs of distant planets, from post-war press photos to propaganda images from the People's Republic of China, and from Internet pornography to computer generated photograms. In each series, Ruff explores the historical and technical conditions of photography by examining these highly varied pictorial worlds. At the same time, he takes into consideration the afterlife of the images in archives, databases, and on the Internet, thus formulating highly complex perspectives on the photographic medium and the world that has already been photographed.
