Modern Photography Thomas Ruff Substrate, 21 III 2003/19. 2003/2019. C-print on fine art paper. 32 x 45.8 cm. Signed, dated and numbered verso. Mounted in two points under passepartout in upper margin. - Occasional delicate and barely noticeable handling marks. Very good overall. Splendid print with exceptionally brilliant and nuanced colours. One of 300 copies. - In the motif, Ruff draws on digital adaptations of Japanese manga images and transforms them into abstract colour fields through extreme enlargement and soft drawing. In the tradition of Appropriation Art, the work reflects media image production and radically questions the boundaries between popular culture, abstraction and photography. C-print on fine art paper.
