The work of the German artist Wolfang Staehle will be included in the exhibition The Poetics of Place: Contemporary Photographs from The Met Collection, organized by Doug Eklund, opening at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on December 12, 2016.

The 60 works in the show will survey the diverse ways in which contemporary artists have photographed landscape and the built world over the last half century.

The exhibition will open with works from the late 1960s and early 1970s by artists working in America and Europe, such as Bernd and Hilla Becher, Dan Graham, and Donald Judd, who brought the lessons of Minimal and Conceptual art to bear on views of nature, both raw and acculturated.

It will conclude with recently made works by artists including Matthew Brandt, Roe Ethridge, and Wolfgang Staehle—whose mesmerizing piece Eastpoint (September 15, 2004) (2004–6) projects a 24-hour cycle of over 8,000 still images synchronized to real time of the same Hudson River that inspired such American painters as Thomas Cole and Frederic Edwin Church.

The show will be on view through June 25, 2017. Further information can be found here.
