Publisher: Kerber Verlag
The photobook "No Fat Poetry" is a harmonious blend of image and text, where neither element dominates the other. In today's digital age, new media has opened up a vast reservoir of visual content, making images increasingly reliant on their context for significance. Within these contexts, images can acquire varying importance depending on their placement or juxtaposition with other elements, such as text and typography. The origins of the texts in "No Fat Poetry" are equally democratic, with nearly all of them being recycled (samplings). These quotes originate from a diverse range of sources, including artists, photographers, street culture, photo-graphic theory, and aesthetics. Furthermore, the involvement of photographers in the book extends to both newcomers and established figures in the field, such as Thomas Demand, Alex Prager, Jörg Sasse, Alec Soth, Josef Sudek, Jürgen Teller, and Jeff Wall.
The book is bilingual, featuring text in both English and German, allowing readers from different linguistic backgrounds to appreciate its content. The combination of visual and textual elements in "No Fat Poetry" creates a unique and engaging reading experience, challenging traditional notions of art and literature. It encourages viewers to explore the interplay between images and words, fostering a deeper understanding of the visual language and the power of storytelling.
Overall, "No Fat Poetry" is a remarkable achievement that showcases the democratic nature of art and the potential of new media to expand the boundaries of creativity. It serves as a testament to the power of collaboration and the importance of visual communication in our modern world.
