Zäh

In line with the approach of Swiss photographer Lukas Wassmann (1980), the photo book ZAH intertwines the banal with the significant. Wassmann's images oscillate between intimate snapshots, self-portraits, crafted nature, buildings and people, self-made furniture, and commercial fashion or documentary photography. Perhaps this reflects the realization that the "things of life" often play out in the background. This is about the in-between, not Wassmann's money shots. ZAH gathers photographs created between 2000 and 2018 that do not follow a chronological or thematic order. Instead, loose narratives emerge from associative sequences of images, only to break off and perhaps pick up the thread again somewhere. Characters appear and disappear, and choreographies of forms provoke color analyses.
