*1963, Germany Thomas Wrede’s internationally exhibited serial works often challenge our concept and relationship with nature, landscape and imagery. His series simultaneously trigger a sense of familiarity and unfamiliarity. Wrede’s choices of familiar scenes often induce a sense of nostalgia. However with the manipulation of the compositions and lighting effects of his photos, a feeling of uneasiness is inevitably evoked. The idea behind Wrede’s work is aptly summarized by the artist regarding one of his series, Real Landscapes : “The starting point of my photographic work is the human longing for nature and the mediation thereof. I question the relationships between constructed model and reality, between picture and copy.” Catalogues available. www.thomas-wrede.de |
