"'This beautifully produced and viewable photo book is NOT a book about Dresden', says Kai-Olaf HESSE.
And he's right about that, because the color images in this volume could have been shot in any city.
This is striking when you get involved in his world, which musically resembles a 'suite'.
And yet, the local viewer may develop native feelings (at least that's how a Cologne person would fare!).
And then there would be something of a 'Dresden book', which also has a 'Cologne book', a 'Wanne Eickel book' , a 'Regensburg book' could be ... " (© Richard G. SPORLEDER)
"For three months, Kai-Olaf HESSE roamed the city of Dresden, and what he took with him in pictures does not really remind one of Uwe Tellkamp's tower,
although with this author he shares the detail, but not the pathos, on the contrary: you can do better.
There is almost all the monuments of the city, from the kennel over Semperoper, Yenidze Mosque and City Palace to Brühl's Terrace over the
Blue Wonder to the White Hart, only they are sometimes a bit in the background." (© Rolf Sachsse)
