#PHOTOARTIST 2 SERIES#
Both series appropriate and challenge our notions of perception and invite an inspiring dialogue around image production. Without the helpful visual references, the inversion of size allows the viewer to perceive these photographs unconventionally, as well as to interpret them. For the latter, Wrede pursued an opposing approach: Instead of a mise-en scène with the help of models, he photographed model-kit trees and grasses in close-up as found objects through their original wrapping and enlarged them to such an extent that the comical plants appear like prehistoric giants. The exhibition situates new works from Real Landscapes with older works from the Wrapped Landscapes series. More than this, it initiates associations and memories of countless films and photographs and consequently represents a quasi projection surface for our inner worlds. Although the photograph is composed from miniature models, it suggests a plausible reality.
#PHOTOARTIST 2 MOVIE#
In The Luminous Screen an empty, brightly lit, drive-in movie screen is situated in the midst of a night mountainscape.

On the one hand they clarify the relationship of contemporary media with its subject matter and on the other they elucidate moments of perception, such as longing or memories. This photograph also illuminates his artistic approach, because for Wrede, photographs are always images about images. The Luminous Screen is both the exhibitions title and that of a large-format landscape photograph from his well-known series, Real Landscape. Wagner + Partner announce the fifth solo exhibition of the German photo artist Thomas Wrede.
