But he quickly moved away from Objectivity principles by introducing a fictional aspect to his work, using various technological advancements to create new visual possibilities of photography, or appropriating existing images. Each time, he shows that an image is a construction and, in some ways, a fiction. His work is divided into series, including\u00a0<em>Portraits, Nights, Jpegs, Nudes, Interiors,\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0<em>Substrats<\/em>. For the latter, Ruff used comics as a base, scanning their pages and manipulating them digitally to create spectacular blurred and brightly colored abstract compositions far removed from the original image.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas Ruff\u2019s work has been exhibited in major retrospectives around the world, recently at the Whitechapel Gallery in London (2017), Art Gallery of Ontario (2016), Kunsthalle D\u00fcsseldorf and SMAK in Belgium ((2014), Haus der Kunst in Munich (2012), and the MOCA in Chicago (2011).
