Andreas Gursky - White Cube - Bermondsey

White Cube Bermondsey present an arresting selection of more recent Andreas Gursky works focusing on the ambiguities often present in the artists photographs. Many of these works easily exceed the size threshold at which an image becomes optically immersive, bodily engaging, forcing movement if only to avoid the environmental reflections captured across the glazing. Upon inspection puzzles of construction emerge both in the original shooting and in the undoubted post production, in some cases even the physical assembly of the print sheets. Gursky has in the past always been assiduous in covering his tracks even while presenting seemingly impossible images. In the spectacular, sometimes cinematic new works he is not content simply to ask questions of the viewer but seems determined to provoke a need to provide answers.
