Jeff Wall: Transit accompanies an exhibition of 26 unique works of this Canadian artist. Jeff Wall made a name for himself with a special invention: light boxes with huge color transparencies of carefully calculated photographic images oscillating between painterly compositions and straight photography. His conceptual work brought him a special position in the art world and his images that also serve as lit objects made him famous during the last three decades. The book accompanies an exhibition at Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden. It includes texts by art historians Ulrich Bischoff, Mathias Wagner, Thomas Weski, and Laszlo Glozer.
