About the Item

La Valeur de la vie - Contemporary City Landscape Digital Photography Creteil Edition 3/3 + 1 AP Print is unframed and comes with a label signed by the artist Hubert Blanz's artistic works mainly deal with urban infrastructure, spatial patterns and geographic as well as virtual networks. A central focus has become the metropolis, its rapid and constant expansion, the challenges which arise from this, its vision and its impact on our living together. The artwork of “La valeur de la vie. À la recherche des villes radieuses” consists of thousands of photos of Brutalism puzzle pieces collected in the banlieues of Paris. The title of the series "La Valeur de la vie" refers to the palace-like social housing complexes by Ricardo Bofill, a Spanish postmodern architect, in and around Paris. Hubert Blanz set out in Paris "á la recherche des villes radieuses", in search of the "shining cities". The "radiant city" is an unrealized urban master plan by Le Corbusier, who wanted to offer the residents a more valuable lifestyle and thus contribute to the creation of a better society. Le Corbusier's strictly symmetrical and standardized principles had a major impact on modern urban planning and led to the development of new typologies for high-density residential buildings. Reading and deciphering Blanz‘s large-scale images depends on the beholder’s distance from the work. From a distance the picture often appears to be an abstract pattern, but when it is approached, the components become recognizable – a game with proportions and the perception of invented spaces. Hubert Blanz was born in 1969 in Hindelang, Germany. He studied at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. Artist in Residencies in Paris, London, Chicago and New York. Numerous solo and group shows amongst others in Austria, Germany, USA, UK, Spain, Chile, Italy and France. Lives and works in Vienna.
