Ralf Brueck Dekonstruktion Distortion DAF Timecapsules

A young proponent of the Düsseldorf school of photography and a master pupil of Thomas Ruff’s, the artist Ralf Brueck (b. 1966) thematizes in his sophisticated, stringently composed works the architectural interior, the expanse of landscape, and modern architecture. The publication illustrates Brueck’s genesis – which began with the series Timecapsules, created at the end of the 1990s and devoted to modern church buildings – and builds a bridge to his two new series, Distortion and Destruction.

From 1995-2002 Ralf Brueck was a student in the class of Prof. Bernd Becher at the "Kunstakademie Düsseldorf". In 2002 he became the master student of Thomas Ruff at the "Kunstakademie Düsseldorf". His exhibitions include: 2007 "room X room", James Harris Gallery, Seattle, USA, 2009 "ich liebe amerika und amerika liebt mich", Galerie Mühlhaupt, Cologne, 2011 "Distortion three", so what gallery Düsseldorf.
