186 - Struth Thomas The Dandelion Room. DAP, 2001. This monograph presents another facet of Struth's work, bringing together a series of photographs of flowers taken for a single project. In 1991, Struth was commissioned to decorate a new hospital in Winterthur, Switzerland. He decided to produce two photographs of flowers and a landscape for each of the 37 patient rooms. Beautifully reproduced here, these images brilliantly and colorfully illuminate a tradition of landscape photography that includes Edward Weston, Walker Evans and August Sander, with the tradition of 19th-century flower and landscape painting. Thomas Struth studied painting with Gerhard Richter and photography with Bernd and Hilla Becher at the Kunstakademie in Düsseldorf. A central figure in the new wave of German photography, Thomas Struth has continued to make an impact on the world of photography with his large-scale museum interiors, portraits and architectural photographs.
