Jörg Sasse
We have to stop making a distinction between professional images and amateur photography. Because the amateur photograph shows everything.

The work of the Düsseldorf photographer Jörg Sasse (1962, Germany) maintains an autonomous position in contemporary art. By digitally manipulating amateur photographs, Sasse succeeds in approximating painting so that the border between the two media is called into question, and the difference between real and fictitious is put under great strain.
