Edition Axel Menges Michael Nether: On Stage
Book SynopsisText in English & German. When at the end of the 1960s Michael Nether set out for Berlin, that city held enormous attraction for young intellectuals and artists, just as it had done in the Roaring Twenties. There were demonstrations and happenings, there was Kommune 1 with Rainer Langhans and Uschi Obermeier, and everywhere people held endless discussions that continued throughout the night. Scandalous theatrical performances and legendary concerts with musicians such as Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, Leonard Cohen and George Moustaki gave expression to a new sensibility. And then there was Klaus Kinski, in his unforgettable performance of Jesus Christ and other one-man shows. Nether photographed what he saw face to face -- 'on stage' -- including stars of international cinema like Claudia Cardinale, Roman Polanski, Peter Ustinov or Pier Paolo Pasolini. One of his first photos was the scene of a 1969 student demonstration at the Berlin Gedächtniskirche. Crowds of people throng the streets observed by countless curious passersby, and the police are there with their vans. The composition of the picture can hardly have happened by chance. Cars and the façades of buildings are points of reference past which people wind like a huge serpent. At the centre top of the picture there is a bright light. The photo sums up the atmosphere of departure and the state of mind of an entire generation. Here Nether demonstrates that he is an articulate documentary photographer. Towards the end of the 1970s, Nether returned to his home region of Swabia. Here he went into business with a partner, worked for advertising agencies -- for instance, taking photographs for Porsche in the company's research and development centre in Weissach -- but he also gradually made a name for himself as a photographic artist, with his own gallery in Bietigheim-Bissingen; particularly noteworthy were his pictures of prominent celebrities such as Wolf Biermann, Martin Walser, Woody Allen or Helmut Newton, as well as numerous photos of performances by the Stuttgart Ballet, but also of "street people". He succeeds in subtly communicating with the latter in these photos and making this dialogue visible. Today his main interest focuses on photographing portraits and nudes. In 2009 the International Center of Photography in New York purchased 100 photographs by Nether.

Edition Taube Saskia Groneberg - Buropflanze ( Office Plant )
Book SynopsisSaskia Groneberg casts a tenderly ironic look at plant arrangements, whose often misjudged purpose lies in disorganized intervals. Without much ado, Sansevieria, cacti, succulents and other barren plants nestle as an inventory in the modern office worlds. The primary order of these spaces is rational. Thus, the mostly private green grows and proliferates over tables and shelves, occupies corners and corridors, divides spaces and connects them. With cuts and glimpses, as a faded trail or in an expansive gesture, Saskia Groneberg circles the radius of the office plant and reveals her mostly peripheral status. - Thomas Seelig, Fotomuseum Winterthur

APE Dominique Somers - 00a
Book SynopsisDominique Somers' work 00A consists of a remarkable compilation of found images. The title of the series refers to the starting-point markings printed between the sprocket holes on the leader of a 35-mm photographic film. Somers has been collecting the first, automatic exposures made on this 00A frame of the negative strip for years. They are the result of a photographic practice that in today's digital age has almost become a form of archaeology: when positioning a roll of analogue film in the camera, one has to release the shutter a few times and wind a couple of frames forward to reach the starting position (1A) of the unexposed part of the spooled film. It is precisely these throwaway shots, made while loading the camera before the real work begins, that Somers has appropriated. The 00A image is given, not made. It is the antipode of the naïve, redundant photography of amateurs and journalists, the users of 35-mm cameras. As a series, 00A investigates the boundaries of the technical and conceptual identity of photography. With the support of the Flemish Government and KASK & CONSERVATORIUM School of Arts Gent

APE Thomas Min - the Perfect Document
Book SynopsisEvery conceivable objectfrom an ordinary thing to a readymade that is presented in an artistic context or an intentionally constructed artefactonce probably had a photographic pendant, either as a document or an artistic interpretation. On the one hand it's a lovely and even comforting idea that things are given a second life, but on the other hand it's a depressing thought that reveals something about our obsession to portray.
