Roland Fischer's "Facades" are spectacular photographic pictures: a
visual grammar of architectural structures, an alphabet of abstract
forms full of art-historical references. Roland Fischer (b. 1958),
whose work is exhibited worldwide in important museums, lives and
works in Munich and Beijing. Since the 1990s the artist has been
photographing the exteriors of buildings, of banks, corporate
headquarters and museums in the metropolises of the world,
including Beijing, Tokyo, Shanghai, New York, Hong Kong, Melbourne,
Osaka, Boston, Brasilia, Los Angeles, Paris, Sao Paulo, Singapore,
Dallas, Madrid, Washington, Mexico City, Chicago, Toronto,
Chongqing and Montreal. The results of this breathtaking project
form an unusual series of some 100 facades: a vocabulary of global
architecture, an inventory of city landmarks. The structures and
colours of the contemporary metropolitan universe are transformed
into pictures that resemble abstract paintings.
