White Cube wishes a Happy Birthday to Andreas Gursky 🎉⁠
⁠
In ‘Paris, Montparnasse II’ (2025), Andreas re-creates one of his most recognised images – his 1993 photograph of Jean Dubuisson’s Immeuble d’habitation Maine-Montparnasse II.⁠
⁠
Describing the building as a ‘vast panopticon’, he underscores its modular design, which compresses the lives of its occupants into distinct yet uniform units.⁠
⁠
The artist employs advanced digital techniques: the façade is rendered with an analytical, almost forensic clarity, transforming figurative elements into formalist patterns.⁠
