Andreas Gursky - The Kuwait Stock Exchange

yes, this image was very bold standing there in the white hall of Frieze. Very interesting photographer, as the topic he chooses to focus on is a very grand and internationally inclusive one...
Looking forward to seeing more of his work. And at the moment, the Gulf can very much be his muse - the region is riddled with material for him to photograph (see his pictures of jumeira palm and bahrain race track)!
