IN LOVE WITH PHOTOGRAPHY is a unique treasure in the history
of photography, waiting to be lifted from the archives of Volker
Hinz. A treasure, amassed in almost 50 years by a passionate
photographer of portraits and presented here for the first time.
Volker Hinz photographed those who normally remain hidden
behind their cameras. Whenever and wherever he encountered
them: at work, at home, in public or private moments. This is
how a unique collection of the most renowned photographers of
the second half of the 20th and the early 21st centuries came
about. A summit meeting of individuals who sustain humanity’s
memory with their images. Peter-Matthias Gaede, GEO Editor-
in-Chief, has followed Volker Hinz’ work for a long time and
describes the life of a photographer who set out to discover for
himself not only his profession but humanity as such. And
became a fascinating modern classic in the process.
