It is not always so for me though it is highly evaluated worldwide – Thomas Ruff’s latest series works “cassini” and “zycles” exhibited in GALLRY KOYANAGI made me feel so. The “cassini” which original image was the one transmitted from a inquiry machine in the Saturn "cassina", seems of course smart and successive to finish the heavenly body up in pop. However it also seems like a somewhat high level photograph decorated at an interior shop, with a help of the dark brown frame. I don’t think it is due to the quality of the works themselves but just had no impression with them.
