Thomas Ruff
1958
Germany
Born in 1958 in Zell am Harmersbach, Germany
At the Kunstakademie in Düsseldorf, Thomas Ruff was a student of Bernd and Hilla Becher, German photographers renowned for their focus on industrial heritage, whose principles he applied to make architecture one of his primary subjects. He maintains the same detachment, purposefully excluding any emotional elements. This overt objectivity also suggests that photography, by its very nature, is manipulative.
