Lambda print in colours, on glossy paper, with full margins - Signed in black ink and numbered (printed) on a label affixed to the reverse - Published by EN/OF Editions, Kleve, Germany, // Bullion by Thomas Demand is a limited edition Lambda print that portrays meticulously crafted models of gold bullion bars, rendered in striking detail. Demand, known for his process of constructing lifelike models and then photographing them, plays with themes of value, wealth, and illusion in this piece. The glossy finish and warm golden hues evoke opulence, while the careful arrangement and uniformity of the bars suggest an almost surreal sense of abundance. By using an artificial medium to replicate a symbol of wealth, Demand subtly critiques our perceptions of value and authenticity in a world increasingly dominated by simulation.
