Thomas Ruff,
‘Photographs
1979 - 2017’
@ Whitechapel
Gallery
—
‘Like so many
sculptors of his
generation, Ruff
pays close attention
to the essential
nature of the image
itself, giving it the
physicality of an
object and the
autonomy of the
abstract’.
‘Photographs
1979 - 2017’:
Pursues Ruff's lines
of investigation
through series
of typologies, a
selection of which
– spanning 1979 to
2017 – are brought
together for this
solo exhibition in
London.
Keywords:
Cosmology, suburbia,
nudity, utopianism,
catastrophe.
“I’ve always tried
to work with images
of the world that
are unforgettable.”
