The reopening of the Hayward Gallery on London’s Southbank brought German photographer, Andreas Gursky’s works. The huge blown up photographs give an interesting depiction of people, not as individuals but in large groups or from a distance where personality is overlooked. Photographs are edited to give remove distortions. The scale of images allows the image to be seen as a whole but the detail invites viewers to get closer to investigate the detail. Gursky plays with the line between painting and photography by constructing his images and creating scenes through post-production – much like a painter he chooses which parts to emphasise, which parts to hide, which parts to add and subtract.
