VOGT, Christian. Christian Vogt: It was always there, it's just grown stronger
Lars Muller Publishers,2014
SKU 97505

Over the now more than forty-five years that he has been studying and exploring photography, Christian Vogt has discovered new visual vocabularies again and again. His new work, It has always been there, it has only grown stronger, consists almost exclusively of contrasting pairs of pictures. In it he also questions the relationship between visible reality and its photographic reproduction, between image and text, between seeing and knowing. Deliberately dispensing with digital photography and occasionally working with a pinhole camera, he deals with the "necessary nonsense," with unifying opposites, with actual and supposed paradoxes, defining some things through exploration and allowing others to remain undefined.
