The photographer, Wolfram Ruoff works with an abstraction of the 2D picture, with light, depth and the straightness of a technical line used as a citation of form. Thematically, his photographs deal with the interaction of sign-dominated urban spaces and the individuals living within them. Specific post-processing of the photographs shifts the viewer’s focus to emphasize details and a temporal compression of space, causing the past to become the present. Subsequently, the photographs begin to talk and tell the viewer stories of an uncertain future, in which the inhabitants of metropolitan spaces sway between self confidence and uncertainty. for years, while on numerous trips abroad, ruoff has continued his series, Pure Lines, using his camera to analyse the mystical atmosphere of the world’s metropolises, without manipulating its contents. Sous Les Etoiles Gallery is thrilled to host the first solo exhibition of Wolfram Ruoff, Pure Lines, in New York City in April 2009. – Artnet
