Tausend Himmel - Joachim Schmid

A seminal conceptual artist's book by Berlin-based pioneer Joachim Schmid. In 'Tausend Himmel' (2005), Schmid masterfully explores the boundaries of appropriation art and found photography. By isolating and heavily magnifying sections of skies from mass-media print materials, he dissolves romantic imagery into haunting, grainy, CMYK halftone dots. A rare and brilliant critique on image production and digital/analog consumerism. A must-have for specialized photobook collectors."
