Catalogue Note
Parmi les talents formés à l'Ecole de Düsseldorf par Bernd et Hilla Becher, Andreas Gursky est certainement l'un des plus remarquables. Comme d'autres étudiants, il respecte les grandes lignes du style Becher mais son style reste reconnaissable entre tous. Ce grand format, alliant une composition millimétrée, une répétition générale et un point de vue frontal nous dirige instantanément dans l'univers d'Andreas Gursky. Son approche traite de la globalisation par cette parade de flacons de parfums, mais également le luxe aujourd'hui démocratisé. Cette œuvre renvoie également au célèbre 99 Cents, 1999, allégorie consumériste ou à la première série intitulée Prada I réalisée en 1996 qui souligne la mise en scène de l'accessoire de mode comme oeuvre.
