Andreas gursky's life

As early as before graduating from high school, andreas gursky mastered the skills of commercial photography. In the late 1970s, he studied at Folkwang School near Essen for two years, where there was a training course for professional photographers, especially photojournalists.

In Essen, Gorschi came into contact with the documentary tradition of photography-a rigorous art and observation method, without any decoration. Its careful and objective observation of things is very different from too many human factors in commercial photography.

In the early 1980s, Gorschi entered the National Academy of Fine Arts for further study. Joseph beuys, Sigmar Bode and gerhard richter, the most important German avant-garde artists after World War II, all came from here. Gorski learned the rules of the art world here, and also learned the rigorous methods of managing art from the famous contemporary masters of conceptual art and minimalism Bernd and Becher.

In the late 1980s, when Gorschi and several other students of Becher were widely recognized by the art world, Gorschi's works were regarded as the inheritance and development of his teachers' artistic ideas.

Gorski is diligent in thinking and brave in innovation, and integrates his knowledge of photography into his works. After more than ten years of continuous exploration and innovation, Gorschi gradually formed a distinctive personal style and became the most dazzling star in German photography. Gorski's works are famous for their large pictures, eye-catching, rich colors and rich details. After entering the 1990s, Gorschi concentrated his creative center on the theme creation that shocked people, reflected the characteristics of the times and represented the spirit of the times.

In order to pursue his goal, Gorsky moved from the streets of Dü sseldorf to a richer and wider world, leaving his footprints in Hongkong, Cairo, new york, Brasilia, Tokyo, Stockholm, Chicago, Singapore, Paris, Los Angeles and Shanghai.

In his early theme creation, Gorschi showed people's holiday leisure and travel life, and factories, residential buildings, restaurants, office buildings and warehouses all entered his lens. The German parliament hall, the trading hall of the international stock exchange market, and the attractive brand-name goods shelves have also become the objects he wants to capture. After entering the 1990s, his works are increasingly developing in the direction of big scenes, fast pace, high consumption and globalization, among which people without names are the least important.
