it was thomas hoepker, the famous magnum photographer, who once said “you take one, maybe two pictures a year”. this is my picture 2023. i visited a very good and old friend in vilanova i la geltru in march and had a lot of time to explore this little city with my camera. the carousel in the blue hour was such a lovely situation i really enjoyed to came along.
industrial photography for ineratec in frankfurt.
photographing an architectural model of a project for the iba 2027
together with merz akademie, i photographed the images of the art project solid transitions in the unfinished halls of the stuttgart train station. for a few days at the beginning of january 2023, a total of 14 artistic positions were exhibited there. here you can see the works of frauke schlitz, erik sturm, anima ona and kestas.
this is just wonderful! the rock carvings near brodalen from the bronze age.
driving up all the way from stuttgart to the lofoten islands in wintertime. just fantastic.
more to come next year.
it was very sad to hear that the fantastic brazilian dancer ismael ivo died of covid 19. i took these pictures at the stuttgarter theaterhaus in 2006 at the play “apocalypse”.
it was thomas hoepker, the famous magnum photographer, who once said “you take one, maybe two pictures a year”. this is my picture 2020. i took it in klagenfurt between the first and the second wave. for me it was one of these very rare peaceful moments of the covid 19 year, being in holiday, but the old man with his crutch and the “zu vermieten” sign shows the reality of this very special year and especially what the future will bring from it.
just two days before the second lockdown began, i headed into the kleinwalsertal to take the photos of the youth hostel of the stadtjugendring stuttgart. this weekend felt a little bit like “shining” being nearly alone in a 20 room hostel with around 70 beds up in the mountains.
for a panel website of my client fidam i took a lot of portraits. here are a few of them.
it was the fifth time that i was teaching my workshop technical camera and architectural photography at the wifi innsbruck, and i have been travelling nearly a hundred times to innsbruck, where i once lived, but it was the first time that i had a special permit to enter my homeland austria. in times of covid 19 it is not that easy to travel in europe…nobody ever thought that something like this could happen. i was really happy, that my workshop took place with these fabulous participants!
this is my very spontanous coronavirus pandemic project from today. i call it high noon. on a normal tuesday in april, with more than 20°, there are lot of people around in the city for shopping or having lunch. but at the moment the city is quiet as i have seen it only on early sunday mornings and only a few people are on the streets.
it was thomas hoepker, the famous magnum photographer, who once said “you take one, maybe two pictures a year”. this is my picture 2019. i took it in basel on an ordinary saturday morning. i love the scenery and the slow mood which is a real expression of switzerland for me, the watch, the confiserie and the woman inbetween with her two dogs tapping on her phone.
