Paul Thuile was born in 1959 in Bolzano, Italy. He studied computer science in Wien and he attended a proficiency course at Oswald Oberhuber and Ernst Caramelle. Today he teaches at the University of Bolzano. The theme of everyday perception makes up the central unit of Paul Thuile’s work, in which the observated object – a detail into an house, an entry phone on the corner, an ordinary object – is reproduced by a drawing that shocks all the rules of linear perspective. Those drawings are made on the walls of an old house and then, they’re photographed by a professionist, the photographer Augustin Ochsenreiter. This is the final product of Thuile’s work. The drawings on the wall are the artist’s point of view. Photography is the objective registration of his experiences but the choice of a photographical image is subjective again.
