ISBN: 9783868281521 / Angielski / Twarda / 128 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In his photo series German photo artist Thomas Wrede juggles with real-life content versus constructedness in photography construed as a mirror of reality. His invented spaces start out as actual views of nature, landscapes, and cities, and are then taken to the threshold of absurdist surrealism and ambiguity. By adding and staging his images with little models, Wrede disturbs our perception of reality and the image. Wrede creates in his photographic worlds room for longings and utopias located somewhere beyond time and space. This catalog covers two of the artist's outstanding photo...
