Axel Hutte: Fecit»rank: 990427by: Roland Monig, Axel Hutte
: :Description: German photographer Axel Hutte has developed in recent years a singular approach to his photographic compostions. His remarkably rich landscapes, flora, waterfalls, and bridges are all depicted with Hutte's signature elements: each focuses on a single motif: sky, water, or plant take up the entire image; they convey a sense of the infinite: the subject isn't framed, its position as sole element suggests its continuation out of the frame, on and on; geometric composition is a central theme in his works: he finds and represents the lines, circles, and repetitive shapes that exist in nature. The 24 photographs reproduced in Fecit were taken in his travels through Europe, South America, and ... |

After Midnight»rank: 1232811by: Axel Hutte
: :After midnight, as America's cities gradually fall asleep, Axel Hütte comes alive. From the window of his hotel room on the upper floors of high-rises, he surveys the nighttime cityscapes of Chicago, Las Vegas, Atlanta, New York, Los Angeles, and Houston: the black silhouettes of buildings in front of a dark sky, rows of street lights, dots of color from neon signs, here and there a bright window. Big cities never sleep, there is no such thing as utter darkness, and stars only rarely have a chance to gain the upper hand against neon and nightlife. Axel Hütte, known as the 'landscape painter' among contemporary photographers, is an experienced nighttime photographer. In ... |
Axel Hütte: Secret Garden, Misty Mountain»rank: 2099759from: Holzwarth Publications
: :Forests full of mystery, gardens that remain aloof from outside gazes, mountains whose fog-shrouded summits are hidden in a thick veil--the views of nature that Axel Htte captures in these photographs are vividly animate and seductive, but ultimately allow nature to remain sovereign and at a distance. Panoramas of awesome beauty absorb the gaze and simultaneously put it in its place--nature remains intact and impenetrable. |

Axel Hutte: North South»rank: 1649956by: Axel Hutte
: :The North has always held special fascination to artists: stark, inhospitable landscapes; tundras, moors and glaciers; rocks and ice; silence and solitude. From Caspar David Friedrich's 'Wreck of Hope' to contemorary photography, northern landscapes have served as landscapes of mind and soul rather than athletic outdoor challenges and as places of desire for people disenchanted with modern civilization. A covert romantic, Axel Huette shunned neither cold nor wind heading north for the landscapes of Alaska, Greenland, Iceland, and Norway. Huette juxtaposes the glaciers' blue gleam, the neverending ice-bound plains and the magically white horizons of the north with the lush green opulence of southern forestss and sub-tropical jungles, presenting landscape contrasts in ... |
