Tanger

In 2023, the KILLROY media publishing house from Ludwigsburg will release the catalog "Tanger" by Boris Kerenski as part of its Artbooks series. The classic black-and-white photographs offer a serene perspective on the legendary Moroccan port city at the Strait of Gibraltar. Kerenski seeks moments of stillness in this otherwise bustling metropolis, while the sky often dramatically influences the composition of the images. These artistic shots lie between documentation and expressive movement. The photographs are enriched by literary texts from various authors, including Amsél, Dieter Haller, Susann Klossek, Björn Kuhligk, Pociao, and Florian Vetsch, who respond to the images in a dialogue. In this way, text and image mutually enrich each other while simultaneously emphasizing their unique positions. This approach allows for a multifaceted perception of this city, which holds significant relevance in world literature.
