In 'Zuerst das Leben' Willy RONIS documents a modern socialism, ignoring the problems of the system. These are pictures about everyday life in the GDR, which - detached from the context of the Cold War - unfold their full stylistic and aesthetic effect.

The photo volume 'Stranger Passing' by Joel STERNFELD contains portraits taken in the America over a period of fifteen years. Based on August SANDER's classic photograph of three peasants on their way to a dance, a conceptual strategy was pursued here.

'Havana' by David BAILEY shows him at the peak of his skills with photographs that reflect the full range of different genres of the medium. From lively street reports to portraits worth seeing, it offers an indispensable look at the skin city of Cuba.

In 'Go-Sees. Girls Knocking on My Door', Juergen TELLER questions fashion industry and the world of models. Shot in the different lights of the changing seasons, but always at the entrance to his studio, the portraits seem to merge into a single image.
