This photo volume compiled by Hans-Peter FELDMANN, 'Frauen' - as 'Women' also available in English - shows a selection made and edited by the Düsseldorf photo artist from over 500 photos in a private collection.

'Die Farbe Grau' combines photographs by Michael SCHMIDT - the series 'Berlin-Wedding' (1976-1978) and 'Waffenruhe' (1985-1987) with several pictures by famous artist Gerhard RICHTER from the years 1965 to 1974 as well as the work 'Siegel/Grau' from 1991.

Roswitha HECKE's b/w shots of transvestites from the 'Pigalle' district in Paris in their diagonally cut blouses, bell bottoms and cheap Charleston dresses from Monoprix are blown with an aura of shabby glamor, poverty, melancholy and a zest for life.

In the images in the book 'Horse' Jitka HANZLOVÁ transmits the essence and instinctive qualities of those animals, because horses communicate through a clear body language - the act of photographing unites the dialogue between man & animal in its entirety

'Two Rivers' offers an extended view on the works of Joachim BROHM & Alec SOTH. In addition to the juxtaposition of 'Ruhr' & 'Sleeping by the Mississippi', it also contains also groups 'Ohio', 'Dessau Files' & 'Culatra' as well as 'Songbook' & 'Niagara'.
