RARE OPPORTUNITY to purchase this great photobook by internationally well-known German photographer Axel Hütte - in BRANDNEW CONDITION.

"The night shots by Axel Hütte, born 1951, present empty riverside promenades dotted with lanterns, illuminated office buildings, landscapes immersed in darkness with a single light at the horizon, and one sunset showing the last glow in the blackness of the night."
(from the publisher)

Axel Hütte was student of the first class of Bernd and Hilla Becher (together with Candida Höfer, Andreas Gursky, Thomas Struth and Thomas Ruff) from 1973 till 1981 at the Academy of Art, Düsseldorf. Axel Hütte is one of the most famous Becher students, beside his pictures famous for fantastic photobooks and artist books like 'London' (Martin Parr, Gerry Badger, The Photobook, A History, Volume 2, page 247).

New, mint, unread; still originally shrink-wrapped in publisher's plastic foil.

Axel Hütte is a German photographer best known for his mysterious images of landscapes and cities like London and Paris. His carefully constructed, geometric compositions, as well as his use of long exposure times, crystallize Hütte’s landscapes, imbuing them with a timeless quality. In my landscape work I am working with the emptiness, avoiding any signs of civilization or narrative indication, so in (the) best case you are lost in time and space,” he explained. Born in 1951 in Essen, Germany, the artist’s meticulous approach to photography is influenced by his time studying under Bernd and Hilla Becher at the Kunstakademie Düsseldorf during the late 1970s. Their instruction has influenced a group of notable contemporary photographers—the Düsseldorf School, as they are known—including Andreas Gursky, Candida Höfer, Thomas Struth, and Thomas Ruff. The artist currently lives and works between Düsseldorf and Berlin, Germany. His photographs are held in the collections of the Folkwang Museum in Essen, the Museo Reina Sofía in Madrid, and the Museo Jumex in Mexico City, among others.
