Michael Ruetz

Johanna Breede Photokunst, Berlin

With its 3000 phasic images made between 1989 and 2012, the series "Absolute landscape" is like a film in slow motion. It shows that one need not travel from pole to pole to experience blizzards and tornados, seas of fog, cloud castles, heat haze and icy expanses, warm mountain wind and beastly weather, days of night and moon comets, fire storms and eclipses. The world in a nutshell. Some of the light phenomena depicted are invisible to the naked eye. These images make visible what was previously only imaginable. The landscape shown is referred to as absolute, because it is geographically undefined, ultimately presenting an ideal landscape. Its characteristics - mountain and valley, house and church, brook and tree and bush, forest and meadow - could occur anywhere. Solely the light is specific in these images. Opening reception Juni 13, 6-9pm, with an introduction by prof. Christoph Stolzl.
