Berlin nach 1945

Meer over het boek

Michael Schmidt's photographs have always focused on his hometown of Berlin especially in book format--a fundamental element of his work. One of his most important bodies of work about Berlin, Berlin Nach 1945, has never before been published as a whole. It is particularly significant at this time, given the extreme urban, social, artistic and general developmental changes Berlin has undergone in recent years. This series documents a place which, as recently as 1980, was still very much marred by World War II, and provides an impressive visual record of a city in a state of flux.
