German artist Clemens Gritl imagines an enigmatic, radically aggressive futuristic urban dystopia, an extension of Brutalist dogma. Inspired by the revolutionary social visions of mid-century architecture and literature like Ballard’s High-rise and Alvin Toffler’s Future Shock, Gritl’s computer models refract and redefine the “urban utopias” of the 20th century. His photo-realistic, black-and-white presentations invert the optimism of 1960s architectural photography, transforming monuments into monsters. Technically, Gritl's work blurs the interfaces between photography, CGI - computer generated images, CAAD - computer aided architectural design, image manipulation and digital painting. Archaic and new digital techniques of the Information Era, are woven together.
