Publication Excerpt: The Museum of Modern Art, MoMA Highlights since 1980,
New York: The Museum of Modern Art, p. 169
Large photographs intended to compete with paintings on the walls of
galleries and museums began to become a norm in the 1980s. One of the
challenges that faced the artists who made them was the need to marshal
photography's abundant bits and pieces of descriptive detail into images
that could command attention when viewed from a distance. Gursky conquered
that challenge with bold geometric patterns that disclose a wealth of
complexity as the viewer approaches. Occasionally he achieves the pattern
with the help of digital techniques; in Rhine II industrial buildings have
been eliminated from the background. This romantic hymn to the grandeur of
the Rhine River emulates the haunting simplicity of abstract paintings by
Barnett Newman and others, but the image is instantly recognizable as a
landscape. And the mesmerizing silver–gray fabric that represents the waves
on the water is a swath of unmistakably photographic fact.
