THOMAS STRUTH

Posted on 2015-04-06

Between 2009 and 2014 Thomas Struth travelled to Israel and the West Bank six times and made images in a variety of locations, including Tel Aviv, the Golan Heights, Ramallah and Nazareth. Listening to the stories of his guides and other people he met along the way, “my exploration was about observing the human theatre and what seemed to touch me most. In essence, it was about the reading of the signifiers and the pictorial possibilities of the place”. Continuing in his pursuit of universal themes and visualisations of life, technology and the human condition, Struth encountered families, landscapes, architecture, and sites of new technology in the region – to create these images in the range of genres for which he is well known.

“A landscape doesn’t need me, you or anybody. It becomes interesting if it can be the ground plan for human experience, projection or desire.” TS

VEE SPEERS – BULLETPROOF

Posted on 2015-04-06

The new series follows six years after her infamous series The Birthday Party. Continuing the theme Speers now photographs these same children. Since then, much has changed – their bodies are taller, longer. Their faces have thinned and transformed. Speers has recorded it. She has taken them to imaginary lands, playing fields, and curious places where these characters are ever prepared and always win. Vee Speers eternalises the fragile beauty of adolescence. She photographs a time that follows the first loss: that of childhood.
