Tango Metropolis

The photographer and scientist Rolf Sachsse has written a fascinating text in the new catalog about Thomas Kellner's series, Tango Metropolis. Using various means, Thomas Kellner created a series about the most famous monuments in the world. These remarkable buildings are already known to everyone, but the photo artist offers the audience to rediscover them through his camera and his work. This portfolio consists of deconstructed images that, according to Rolf Sachsse, are part of mannerism and cubism. In his opinion, Mannerism is Thomas Kellner's first influence because it transforms modern elements that surround us into a work of art without simply depicting them. In fact, Thomas Kellner deconstructed every cliché in order to rearrange it according to his ideas.
