The expansive colour photographs of Andreas Gursky articulate what he has described as the ‘essential commonality’ of contemporary life. From multinational headquarters to performance stadiums, post-war architecture to domestic interiors, Gursky endows his subjects with a monumentality that recalls the compositional ambition of history painting. Across these panoramas, he probes the systems and structures of globalisation, consumerism and social exchange, transforming them into visual fields from which underlying patterns and unexpected details emerge.
This exhibition unveils new photographs that extend his investigations into contemporary culture, alongside a series of ‘chrono capsule’ works, in which the artist returns to the sites of his earlier pictures to document the passage of time and the imprint of ecological and sociopolitical change.
