GREAT PHOTOBOOK by Andreas Gursky, one of the MOST IMPORTANT and MOST SUCESSFUL photographers of our time. Andreas Gursky studied at "Folkwangschule Essen" (Otto Steinert) and at "Kunstakademie Düsseldorf" (Bernd and Hilla Becher).

New, mint, unread, still originally shrink-wrapped in publisher's foil.
COLLECTOR'S CONDITION.

Andreas Gursky's new Bangkok series forms the basis of this book. Gursky's photos depict the dark, moving water of Thailand's Chao Phraya river, whose shimmering surface possesses the qualities of abstract painting. Indeed these photos are reminiscent of some of the most recognisable examples of Modernist Abstraction such as the work of Hans Arp, but they also echo the more hostile patterns of military camouflage. Seductively beautiful on the first glance, it is only in time that the rubbish of civilisation becomes recognisable floating on the surface of the river - the flotsam of a threatening reality moving upon colourful reflections.

Steidl, Göttingen. 2012. First English edition, first printing. 

Hardcover (as issued). 220 x 290 mm. 112 pages. Book design by Adeline Morlon. 12 large-format Bangkok plates, 12 specially prepared details on translucent paper. 40 illustrations. Texts by Hans Irrek, Beat Wismer and John Yau. Text in English.

Great photobook - in perfect condition.
