The High was the first museum in the United States to present a new body of work by German photographer Thomas Struth with this major touring exhibition, which featured more than 30 works by the renowned artist. Struth is celebrated for his innovations with large-scale color photography, which span fields of interest such as cityscapes, architecture, portraits, landscapes, museum pictures, and images of technology systems. Nature & Politics combined various strands of Struth’s work—placing particular focus on technology and the manufactured landscape as overarching subjects.
