Thomas Struth : Museum Photographs

description

English edition exhibition catalogue published in conjunction with show held at the Kunsthalle, Hamburg, November 11, 1993 - January 16, 1994. Text by Hans Belting. Includes a biography and bibliography. Text in English. "Thomas Struth's series 'Museum Photographs', which is published in this volume for the first time in full, comprises seventeen oversized colour photos, which were taken between 1989 and 1992 in the large museums of the world. The subject of these pictures is art - or to be more exact: paintings and how they are presented and observed in the context of museum architecture. These photos with their interconnecting levels of perception, time, and subject matter prompt the viewer to investigate the very act of seeing and perceiving. The art historian Hans Belting discusses in his essay the complex questions that arise when facing Struth's 'Museum Photographs.'" -- publisher's statement.
