We leave a white boarder for better handling (which may be used optionally as a kind of passe-partout when mounted, if favoured) _ EXCERPT: ........The fascination for Japanese landscapes, travels to the exoticism of a far-off land, people in the game of deception of a foreign culture. This is where Rueger shows his “tools of the trade”: the progressive optimisation of the technique employed, and an eye for the essential. Tofukuji II But it very soon becomes more. The subject – Japanese worlds – increasingly meets his own involvement with Japanese philosophy as reflected in the aesthetic concept of Wabi and Sabi – he would not be a European if he did not devote himself to the development of the history of western photography at the same time. Two worlds meet here, which allow his European roots to fuse with those of this new eastern world of experience. Focussing on Japanese motifs, it is becoming increasingly important to him in his portrayal of these, to reflect this personal perception and his own feelings. By intervening in nature in this way, giving it his own personal setting, and putting the object into a clearly defined, almost private context, he combines the aesthetic construct of Wabi and Sabi (4) with his artistic aim: the object in its simplicity is the reflection of my personal feeling as the viewer. From this self-centred viewer’s standpoint, he integrates the “external” viewer. He fetches him into the room, which emerges as reality in his photography, and allows it – the room – to be experienced in its three-dimensionality........ Dr. C.
