The exhibition is co-organized by the Foundation for the Exhibition of Photography, the UCCA Center for Contemporary Art, and TFAM, curated by Douglas Fogle.  It brings together nearly 70 of the artists’ works from the 1990s to the present, showcasing his 30-year practice at the intersection of sculpture and photography.
Thomas Demand reconstructs life-size scenes of seemingly banal images from the mass media using paper and cardboard, and then photograph the scenes to create images similar to the originals.  Finally, he destroys the models, leaving behind only large-format photographic prints. In this way, he questions the notion of photography as an absolutely objective or truthful medium and explores the distance between reality and representation.

本展覽由攝影展覽基金會、尤倫斯當代藝術中心與北美館共同製作,美國策展人道格拉斯.佛格策劃。匯集藝術家從1990年代至今近70件作品,呈現其30年融合雕塑與攝影的創作實踐。藝術家托瑪斯.德曼擅以大眾傳媒中常見的紀實影像為對象,以紙材精細地重建實物尺寸的場景,接著透過鏡頭取景拍攝出近似原影像的畫面,之後將模型全數摧毀,最終用大尺幅攝影輸出再現。藉此,他詰問攝影為絕對客觀或真實媒介的觀念,
探索現實與重現之間的距離。
