Christian Boltanski




Christian Boltanski's portraits are similar to Bruckner's, they create a mystery behind the people. These however are the opposite, with darker hue to them its quite sinister, this makes you think 'are they dead? How did they die?', sort of like an orbituary post or a tragic story in a newspaper. The images with boxes beneath look like the house something to do with the person or could, again what is in it? Two ways of utilising out of focus portraits for positive or negative emotions.
