Christian Rothmann: The Light Touch (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783969120682)

Christian Rothmann (b. Kedzierzyn, Poland, 1954; lives and works in Berlin) is an artistic jack-of-all-trades, a builder of bridges between cultures, and a restless globetrotter and traveler across time. He takes photographs wherever he goes, especially when he is on the road, gathering documentaries with a creative edge, spontaneous yet powerfully symbolic pictures, or conceptual series. He has a special knack for recruiting accomplices from all age groups and across social and cultural differences, as for his series "you and me" or "Mother & Daughter." Fierce large-format paintings and delicate watercolors on small paper formats from Rothmann's studio in Berlin-Kreuzberg complement his long-term photographic projects. The Light Touch presents the artist's variegated visual art on almost five hundred pages. With contributions by Dorothee Baer-Bogensch?z, F.W. Bernstein, Liane Burkhardt/Gerd Harry Lybke, Ilonka Czerny, J?gen Ebertowski, Elfie E. Frlich, Matthias Harder, Andreas Haus, Young Hay, Thea Herold, Wolfgang Heyder, Daniela Kloock, Barbara Robra, Christian Rothmann, Christiane Stahl, Gerd Stern, Christoph Tannert, Wim Wenders, and Hanns Zischler.
