He combines a rigorous style with a neutral, objective vision of reality and an impressively precise technique. The first major monograph on Struth to be published in the United States, Still continues a notable tradition of books by German photographers from August Sander and Albert Renger-Patzsch to Hilla and Bernd Becher, and is a beautiful survey of Struth's body of work, including stunning close-up views of flowers, restrained urban streetscapes, intimate portraits, and frenzied museum interiors. Critic Peter Schjeldahl has written in the Village Voice: \"Thomas Struth [is] one of a generation of photographers whose work is the latest strength of a German art culture that seems to have no end of aces up its sleeve . . . His urban shots apply Becheresque formulas of static, unpopulated (surely early-morning), shadowless views with a feel for the ?typical' or ?average' aspect of a subject. As if in compensation, Struth's astonishing family portraits burn with human presence.\" Struth began in the early 1980s to make steely black-and-white photographs of deserted city streets and decaying buildings. In recent years, his work has diversified in subject, scale, and color to embrace increasingly ambitious subjects and challenging locations. Struth has extended his urban investigation to the inhabitants and spaces of the city, from Milan to Tokyo, while his recent landscapes and portraits complete his unique vision of the alternately public and solitary conditions of being.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50392780800273,"sku":"CIN1580930948G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1580930948.jpg?v=1750762162"},{"product_id":"thomas-struth-book-thomas-weski-ulrich-wilmes-9781942884224","title":"Thomas Struth","description":"\u003cp\u003eSince the 1990s, Thomas Struth has been one of the best-known and internationally successful photographers of the German art scene.

At least it does in Thomas Struth's New Pictures from Paradise, in which each oversize image is a mesmerizing but photographically distant haven unto itself. From Daintree, Australia to Yunnan Province, China, from the mossy valleys of Yakushima, Japan to the looming pine forests of Bavaria, Germany and the lush rainforests of Brazil, Thomas Struth has carried out his photographic expeditions. Capturing settings of so-called untamed nature, his astonishingly detailed images carry with them thoughts of environmental exploitation, the mystification of nature, and the possibility of nature as utopia. Exhibited in monumental print sizes of up to 2.70 x 3.40 m, Struth's pictures are here presented in an appropriately large-scale format, accompanied by individual essays from psychologist Ingo Hartmann and art historian Hans Rudolph Reust, each of whom shines their own particular light into Struth's dense forests and jungles.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":51328509739281,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51328512459025,"sku":"CIN3829600461G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/3829600461.jpg?v=1751351107"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-thomas-struth.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
