excerpt from ken johnson, "art in review: oliver boberg", The new York times, November 19, 2009
You could study Oliver Boberg's color photographs for a long time and not notice anything odd about them. .... Images include a boxy, white metal warehouse on a leaf-strewn parking lot; a shadowy, concrete passage under an office building; a broad, curving highway bordered by shrubbery and a guardrail under a white sky. .... The amazing thing about these photographs is that none of the subjects are real. Mr. Boberg, who is German and in his early 30's, started out as a hyperrealist painter. He constructs each scene from scratch in his studio and carefully lights and photographs it.
