In the photographs by Andreas Gursky (*1955 in Leipzig), living environments, locations throughout our globalized world, and arenas of historical and political power are transformed into emblematic pictorial compositions.\u003c?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" \/\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP class=MsoNormal style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 10.5pt\"\u003eThis publication assembles about fifteen large-format works taken by the world-famous photographer between 1988 and the present. Architecture is a special focus here, a central complex of themes in the oeuvre of the Düsseldorf-based artist. For the first time, each of Gursky’s photographs is accompanied by commentary by a well-known author. The kaleidoscope of texts and images attractively demonstrates the depth and breadth of his concept of architecture, with a concentration on the structures and textures of the buildings’ exterior and interior spaces.\u003c\/SPAN\u003e \u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003cFONT face=TheSans\u003e(English edition \u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt\"\u003eISBN 978-3-7757-2177-6)\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/FONT\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\n\u003cP\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Mathildenhöhe Darmstadt, May 11–September 7, 2008\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\n\u003cP\u003e\u003cSPAN lang=EN-US style=\"FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: TheSans-Plain; mso-bidi-font-size: 12.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n\u003cP style=\"LINE-HEIGHT: 150%\"\u003e\u003c\/SPAN\u003e\u003c\/P\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49811885588744,"sku":"9783775721769","price":39.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775721769_f229d9b3-d088-4b77-8c8b-e8afc69bd767.jpg?v=1744040702","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/15962-andreas-gursky","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
