Whether sketchily visualized thoughts or meticulously staged motifs, the featured series evolve from the interplay of installations, colors, clusters and geometrical compositions and often resemble computer renderings. Frank Hülsbömer has exhibited internationally since the mid-1990s, examines light, anatomical refractions and the construction of space and surface. Reminiscent of the Russian Constructivism of the 1920s and the abstract photography of Moholy-Nagy, his photographs indicate the recent rediscovery of abstraction and geometrical work in contemporary art. The accompanying texts in the book illuminate the theoretical background and artistic approach of a photographic aesthetic that, despite its minimalistic strength and quasi-scientific precision, shines with exceptional depth and creates an outstanding poetic visuality.

review: WALLPAPER MAGAZINE German photographer Frank Hülsbömer has, for the past decade or so, been making a name for himself as one of the most innovative image-makers of his generation. ...with chapters including 'Rubber Dreaming', 'The Tennis Speed of Light' and 'Anatomy of Surface' - Hülsbömer has been sure to imbue the book with his own characteristic sense of irony - although we're pretty certain it won't be the text that's catching your eye.

review: THE ECONOMIST/moreintelligentlife.com refreshingly simple photography. Hülsbömer has a knack for making even the most mundane subjects playful and flirtatious. His layered still-lifes, which feature such everyday objects as textured paper, mirrors and rubber bands, are carefully assembled in natural yet dynamic compositions, and Hülsbömer's camera captures every defined shadow, curve, and surface. There's something strangely comforting in these sterile images, which lends an element of magic to Hülsbömer's high-concept experiment.

review: COOLHUNTING/Karen Day Using photography as his medium, artist Frank Hülsbömer documents his love affair with objects. The upshot, beautifully-composed, abstract images of various items like colored paper and wire, star in his forthcoming book, The Fiction of Science, along with a detailed explanation of the Berlin-based photographer's both scientific and artistic approach to capturing each article... Applying his studious method to interiors, the lyrical images in his book show how the shift brings an intense concentration on pure form to his work... Described by curator Matthias Harder as "still lifes," Hülsbömer compositions exclude all signals of a human touch and any reference to landscapes, with minimal acknowledgment of the photographic element. His undoctored, multi-faceted photos make for, as he puts it, "a neutralisation of the senses."
