New German Photography

Allison, Emily B., Laurence and I will be doing our research project on NEW GERMAN PHOTOGRAPHY.

Here are some links that I found, that may be useful for the research.

I'm most likely going to be speaking about the trio that started this "movement": Thomas Struth, Andreas Gursky and Thomas Ruff.

→ pretty much just saying how “young german artists” came to be known; how photography wasn’t recognized as an art at first, the break-through came in the 90s (i think a lot has to do wth the fall of the berlin wall, and no more german democratic republic...) with three students of this photo-couple (Bernd and Hilla Becher): Thomas Struth, Andreas Gursky and Thomas Ruff → became known as “Struffsky” for their new style which was now known internationally...
