Statement - The focus of Blank’s photography lies on urbanity and its implications. So it is not the presented architecture itself, but the sentiments that this elicits which are the actual subjects of his photographs. These illustrate his creative response to urbane situations. Blank’s images exhibit a kinship with the work of the Dusseldorf School, though Blank in his work endeavours to convey a more subjective and reactive view. Composition is Blank’s weightiest medium of expression. Configured upon the fundamental theme of urbanity, his works often deal with the maverick or the isolated, whereby the artistic metaphors oscillate between empathy and astonishment.
