Produktbeschreibung
50 years 1968: Many of the photographs that form the collective visual consciousness of this time are by Michael Ruetz: His friend Rudi Dutschke at the microphone, the demonstrations after Benno Ohnesorg's death, Gudrun Ensslin in full revolutionary action with a baby carriage and protest posters. Everyone knows these images. 50 years later Ruetz asked himself: Did I actually see things as I photographed them then? And are the known images the essential ones?
In his photographs taken between 1964-1974, Michael Ruetz shows people as he experienced them in the 1960s, not only in the photographs of the revolutionaries of 1968: He was the first German photographer who visited Auschwitz after the war. He created a unique panorama of a time, which no other western photographer comparably captured during those years.
In his photographs, Michael Ruetz sought the faces of the people from that time, thus preserving them in their individuality. The photographer's choice of details and enlarged sections of photographs allow the viewer to see the images in a new light. It is up to the viewer to interpret what is expressed on the enlarged faces of the onlookers, the followers, the thinkers, the strikers and the fighters of the late 1960s.
