Andreas Gursky
Born: 1955, Liepzig, Germany
Andreas Gursky's investigation of contemporary culture through detailed, high-gloss images has shaped his reputation as one of the most influential and popular contemporary photographers. Gursky's skilled use of rich color in spectacular panoramic views seems more connected to grand master paintings than to traditional photography. The striking visual presence created by this technique is especially evident when viewing these large-scale works in person.
