Booklaunch »PARIS« by JUSTIN WINZ at DEICHTORHALLEN Hamburg

Auszug aus dem newsletter der Deichtorhallen: Rechtzeitig zum Beginn der Ausstellung stellt der Fotograf Justin Winz erstmals sein Buch »Paris« persönlich am 16. September 2011 von 16 bis 19 Uhr in der Fotobuchhandlung im Haus der Photographie vor. Die Technik auf die Justin Winz zurückgreift, entwickelte er über die letzen 6 Jahre aus einer Kombination aus alter Polaroidchemie und den Möglichkeiten diese mit Hilfe des Computers in Bilder zu verwandeln. Der Ansatz dieser Arbeit ist ein höchst subjektiver und aus den normalen Paris-Sehgewohnheiten herausgelöster Blick auf diese Stadt. Die Bilder sind über einen Zeitraum von drei Jahren mit einer sehr intuitiven Herangehensweise entstanden. Es besteht die Möglichkeit, während der Präsentation ein signiertes Andruckmotiv mit dem Buch zusammen zum Vorzugspreis zu erwerben.

"Rainer Wahnsinn" charity book project

SonjaRykiel for (a big swedish company) LA FOLIE IN PARIS

think big, think bigger, and then think even much bigger then that, to get close to a realistic idea of what happened in the GrandPalais last night. i think no one who wasn´t there should know about this. it´s just too mean to tell someone, as there is no chance to turn back time and actually go. And i think that was the genius PR idea behind that whole amazing parisian megalomania: no one talks about the event and the big swedish company will not have to deal with all those crazy people camping in front of their shops to be the first to get some pieces of SonjaRykiel to sell on ebay later..... by the way: No, what you see here is not the real Eiffeltower

American Detail auctioned at PIERRE BERGÉ in Paris

The number 9 of the 10 premiumeditions of my first book "American Detail" including two prints will be auctioned at Pierre Bergé & associés in Paris, as part of a selection Marcus Schaden of www.schaden.com did for Pierre Bergé, putting together what they describe in the cataloge as: "The Schaden collection at the Pierre Bergé & Associés auction presents new voices, remarkable objects and a selection of the finest german photobooks of the last ten years". I feel very thankful and honored.

Guy Bourdin exhibition @ Bonmarche Paris

Sunday i went to the opening night of the excellent Guy Bourdin exhibition of unpublished Polaroids and films at the Bonmarche in Paris.
It´s very worth going and checking out this mastermind of modern fashionphotography.
The exhibition is very well done. The films are presented in mirror rooms and circled rooms which suits them perfectly and ads a new dimension to them (or even a few dimensions, in the mirrors). A nice catalog of the exhibited Polaroid work is for sale at Bonmarche(25€)

Polaroids at JeanPaul Gaultier for the "Paris book project"

with a little help from my friends i ended up on the balcony in the amazing Gaultier house in Rue Saint-Martin, trying to catch some of the fashionweek athmosphere to be maybe added to my selection of polaroid pictures about Paris, i´m intending to publish in my next book, following the success of the sold out "American Detail"-book
