The next of my photographer interviews is published on the seconds2real blog today. Conversational partner this time: Rudi Meisel.

When I was in Hamburg a few weeks ago I had the chance to meet Andreas Herzau for an extensive conversation. His new book Herzau | Moscow | Street is out now and the interview is published today on the Seconds2Real blog. Enjoy reading.

Seconds2Real’s exhibition “Fascination Street” will have its next stop in Vienna. As it is my first exhibition in Austria, I am going to show parts of my series and book ALEX from 2008-2010. All details here.

Frank Silberbach’s Berliner panorama street photographs finally have their own website. It features a vast archive of all 213 pictures published as a weekly column in Berliner Zeitung over the period of more than four years as well as newer photographs that were taken in the last couple of years. Take your time and enjoy.

Seconds2Real’s Mario Cuic has compiled a new photo series which was taken mostly in Munic. They seem to be just a little bit different down there…

Berlin 2011

Kickoff for the weekend… Friedrich Seidenstücker’s big retrospective will open tonight at 7pm at Berlinische Galerie. Seidenstücker (1882-1966) is best known for his humorous photographs of every day life in Berlin during the Weimar Republic and post-war Berlin, especially from the Berliner Zoo. There will be around 200 prints in the exhibition and a book is published as well (Von Nilpferden und anderen Menschen/Of Hippos and Other Humas). Check a selection of his photographs and a german article on spiegel-online.de.

There’s a weekly interview series with members of Seconds2Real street photography collective in celebration of the forthcoming exhibition in Berlin on Sara T’Rula’s blog. The following interviews have been published so far: Elisabeth Schuh, Thorsten Strasas, Andreas Stelter, Mario Cuic and – today – me. Check all interviews here.

„Wenn ich an einer Bushaltestelle einen Mann fotografiere, der auf den Bus wartet, muss auf dem Foto mehr zu sehen sein als ein Mann, der auf einen Bus wartet.“ (When I take a pictures of a man waiting at a bus station there has to be more on the picture than a man waiting at a bus station)

So sad to hear that Arno Fischer died yesterday.

I recently stumbled over Jesse Marlow’s beautiful series “Wounded” again. If you shouldn’t know it you might take a look at it here. On ideastap.com there’s an interview in which he tells us what the inspiration for that series was.
