Thomas Wrede (born 1963) is a German photographer. Wrede was born in Iserlohn-Letmathe. He studied art at the Academy of Fine Arts in Münster () from 1985–1991, Germany, where he was also teaching years later. In 1991 he was the student of Dieter Appelt in Salzburg and Berlin. He has been included in many exhibitions such as “Strange Paradise” at Städtische Galerie Iserlohn, 2005, “Seascapes. Am Meer” at Goethe-Institut London and in Helsinki, 2006. „Tamed Nature“at Brandenburgische Kunstsammlungen, 2005, in Germany. „Really True! The Assurance of Reality in Photography“ at Ruhrlandmuseum Essen, 2004, in Germany and „the Paradise of the Modern“ at Bauhaus Dessau in Germany. Exhibitions in 2007: ”Real Landscapes” at Galerie Herrmann & Wagner, Berlin (27.04-16.06.2007) and the exhibition ”Von Oben und von Unten”, Akademie Franz Hitze Haus, Münster (15.01.2007-14.03-2007). He is presented by WAGNER + PARTNER () in Berlin, by f5,6 () in Munich and by Beck & Eggeling () in Düsseldorf. A number of catalogues have been published about Wrede: “Strange Paradise”, 2005, “Magic Worlds”, 2000, “Birds Hang in the Air and Crey”, 1996, “Samsoe”, 1994 and “Places and Constellations” from 1993. ==Style== It is our relation to nature that interests Wrede: Our longing for nature and the medialized description thereof. With his camera he observes how artificial nature is received in the same way as real nature. This subject matter is well known in German philosophy. Philosophers such as Immanuel Kant and Friedrich Hegel studied the dialectic relation to nature. Wrede thereby continues this German tradition as a photographer, questioning our perception of nature. Thomas Wrede’s last series “Real landscapes” are manipulations of landscapes. By adding artificial details into real nature he creates a staged scene that looks authentic at first. For the observer it becomes difficult to see what is actually real and what is unreal. The resemblance to model construction kits is striking. In effect he creates dreamlike scenes of nature or perhaps even nightmares. 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「Thomas Wrede」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
