Background information
"The photo volume 'Bildanalytische Photographie / Image-Analytical Photography. 1968 - 1974' by Timm RAUTERTZ highlights the fundamental conditions of photographic work - from the photographic act and the development of photographic images under an enlarger in the lab to the various possibilities of presentation.
Content
A systematically elaborated ensemble of analogue black-and-white and color photographs, of image-text compilations, and of manuals and photographic material provokes elementary questions about what photography means as a medium, what is expected from it, and how it has shaped the perception of the world. Scenic black-and-white photographs, passport photos, lab experiments, combinations of selected photo prints with their negatives are found here among Timm RAUTERT’s 56 works, but also non-photographic material such as a grey card (used for measuring light mainly in photo studios), postcards and graphic manuals. Each work becomes an element of 'analysis' showing the numerous potential scenarios of photography." (© Steidl Verlag, 2020)
