Publisher Note
Despite the obvious differences in the visual languages, Land ohne Mitte references the best of the late Michael Schmidt, through its assembly of moments and characters that appear specific and generic at the same time. Those familiar with the work of Tobias Zielony will also find echos of that artist's work. Here then lies another very important strand of German photography, less concerned with the single photograph's pomposity than with layering, with rendering the single photograph almost meaningless. And this new book is destined to find itself amongst the very best books to come out of a country that faces a lot of the same problems now widely shared by large parts of the developing world.
Land ohne Mitte for sure is going to be very high up in my list of the best photobooks produced this year.
