Michael Schmidt
THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME WE HAVE FOUND THIS BOOK. BUT IT IS THE FIRST TIME WE HAVE TOLD ANY MORE THAN ONE OTHER PERSON. IT'S BEEN A VERY PRIVATE SALE KIND OF BOOK. BUT IT IS SO GOOD AND SO SPECIAL AND WE LOVE IT SO MUCH THAT NOW - LOCKED DOWN BUT STILL SHIPPING AROUND THE WORLD - IS EXACTLY THE
TIME TO SHARE IT.
It's so bluetiful. If you ever wondered which - of all the superbooks in the world - we love the most. Then, yes, this is the one.
And this is why. These pictures of these people. The photographer is only ever half the story. Michael Schmidt had an extraordinary understanding of the people around him. In Berlin. Throughout the seventies, eighties and nineties, he represented them.
This is a slim book and a small book. But this is a book you can look at for a long time. And never get bored. And always feel more.
Joy Division and New Order. Can't really explain how much that hair, shirt, earring, dancing does it for us. What an amazing photograph this is.
There is a fold out section of four poetic landscapes in the back of the book. The whole thing is magic. And you can buy it. On the button below.
