The Düsseldorf photographer Thomas Ruff is celebrating his latest series of work with the show ‘press++’ – 12 large scale photographs devoted to early space exploration, on view at New York's David Zwirner Gallery
杜塞尔多夫摄影师托马斯·鲁夫(ThomasRuff)即将在阳光下度过他的一天,安大略美术馆的“对象关系”(ObjectRelationship)将于本月开幕。
切尔西的大卫·兹沃纳画廊正在庆祝鲁夫的最新系列作品。展览“新闻”中有12张照片-有些照片长8英尺,宽6英尺-都是用于早期太空探索的。
在他与画廊的第八次展览中,鲁夫摘取了20世纪50年代的美国报纸照片和剪报,这些照片和剪报都是他在eBay上找到的。
在参考上世纪20年代德国达达艺术家的摄影作品时,鲁夫首先扫描了这些新闻照片的正面和背面,重新发明了摄影的媒介,其中许多照片是由报纸编辑标记和裁剪的,有些甚至还包括打印的字幕。然后,他通过Photoshop将双方结合起来,并在更大的范围内打印数字文件。
在这样做的过程中,鲁夫创造了一个全新的形象,并将他的个人观点放在高科技摄影上。他在谈到这些图片时说:“我想混淆信息。”他用文字描述了火箭升空、宇航员和月球特写照片。
Ruff has plucked up American newspaper photographs and clippings dating from the 1950s, which he sourced on Ebay
Ruff first scans the front and back of press photographs, many of them marked up and cropped by newspaper editors (some even include typed captions), and then combines the two sides via Photoshop before finally printing that on a larger scale. Pictured: press++01.16, 2015
In doing so, Ruff creates an entirely new image, putting his personal spin on high tech photography while also referencing German Dada artists’ photomontages from the 1920s. Pictured: press++01.65, 2015
‘I want to confuse information,’ says Ruff of his images. Pictured: press++01.20, 2015
