Hans Rudolf Thull (born 6 December 1945) is a German artist who works in the fields of photography, collage and sculpture. He was one of the first German contemporary fine-art photographers to have his work shown in solo exhibitions in German art museums.〔One of the first exhibitions of fine-art photography in a German-speaking country was shown in 1977 at the documenta 6. Cf. ''Catalogue of documenta 6, volume 2: Fotografie, Film, Video'', Kassel 1977.〕 ==Life and career== Thull grew up in Bochum, Germany, in an artistically inclined household; his father was concertmaster of the Bochum symphony orchestra. In 1968 he began studying visual communication/photo design/fine-art photography at the Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts, where Pan Walther was among his teachers; he completed his studies in 1973, receiving his degree as a Diplom Designer. After finishing his studies he began his career as an independent fine artist. He initially worked almost exclusively in the field of fine-art photography. From 1983 to 1986 he served as a lecturer at the Dortmund University of Applied Sciences and Arts, where he taught primarily experimental and fine-art photography.〔For a biographical sketch cf.: Goethe House New York (ed.), ''Four Aspects of Contemporary German Photography: Rolf Glasmeier, Robert Häusser, Hans Rudolf Thull, Pan Walther'', Essen 1984, p. 18.〕 During a decisive period lasting from 1989 to 2000 he explored additional art forms: collage and sculpture. His affinity for these areas had already been displayed in isolated earlier works, for example, in his 1985 sculpture "Boden–Raum–Skulptur" for the Ruhr valley project "gRenzüberschreitung". Thull’s work has been exhibited at major German and international museums in exhibitions organised by prominent curators, such as Thomas Grochowiak and Uwe Rüth. His first exhibition was "Realität – Irrealität", together with Rolf Glasmeier; it was shown at the Ludwig Galerie Schloss Oberhausen and at the Kunsthalle Recklinghausen from 1979 to 1980. He was thus one of the first German contemporary fine-art photographers to have his work shown in solo exhibitions in German art museums. Hans Rudolf Thull lives and works in Bochum. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hans Rudolf Thull」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
