The disturbing works of Michael Reisch cannot be clearly defined as either reality or simulation. He photographs landscapes as well as industrial complexes and buildings with a large-format camera. He then digitizes the images and manipulates them subtly with computer software. In this way, he creates his very own view of the landscape. This "invented" landscape can seem unbelievably real, while the "real" landscape, on the other hand, appears unreal, removed, or imaginary. This is the first book to offer a concentrated look at the work of the Dusseldorf-based artist.
