- With this photo Andreas Gursky is using a very unique angle to
capture a vast amount of what the present world is made up of. In other
words, Andreas is showing the globalization of technology and modern
landscaping. This is why he has captured a lot of lights, motor vehicles and
buildings in this picture. The lighting affects in this picture are very important
because he wanted to show modernism.
PERSONAL RESPONSE
His unique camera angles.
Doesn't create fictions but rather intensifies what
already exists in the world.
His abstract way of thinking is interesting.
CONCLUSION
Andreas Gursky uses unique angles in his photos.
He takes photos of landscapes, but also uses his
abstract mind in technologically editing real life
photos into something he is trying to portray.
