by Thomas Ruff (Artist), Markus Kramer (Author), Wade Guyton (Artist)

For the first time, Photographic Objects traces important conceptual connections between the work of Thomas Ruff and that of a younger generation of artists. Against the backdrop of ongoing debates on the nature of photography, Marcus Kramer has developed a new approach to pinpointing what distinguishes the photographic medium from all others.

The book's detailed illustrations offer an extensive overview of the work of Thomas Ruff, Wade Guyton, Seth Price, Kelley Walker, and Spiros Hadjidjanos, while the theory postulated here forms a conceptual framework for the discussion of contemporary artistic practices.
