Herlinde Koelbl

A single look can speak volumes. For five decades, photographer Herlinde Koelbl has been capturing such silent conversations on camera. She always meets her subjects on equal terms-regardless of age, gender, or social standing. Her photography is an exploration of the human condition. Employing visual juxtapositions as well as complementary interviews and texts, her series recount tales of private and public life, social roles, and personal experience. They broaden our perspective on the world, revealing what connects us, despite our differences. The richly illustrated catalog Herlinde Koelbl: Blickwechsel invites readers to rediscover the range of this renowned photographer's oeuvre. It brings the artist's well-known works together with previously unpublished photos.

• A richly illustrated book about the multifaceted work of Herlinde Koelbl
• The first publication of some of Koelbl's previously unseen photographs
