Wanderlust

August 25, 2014

A great retrospective of the Leica photographer Thomas Hoepker by teNeues Verlag (publishers) will appear in time for photokina 2014.
The best photo books tear us away from our familiar surroundings and send us on a journey to remote areas of the world. This is particularly the case of this impressive photo book, a retrospective of Thomas Hoepker's very diverse body of work.

Covering 60 years, Wanderlust is a spectacular summary of the work by this photo journalist and former president of the Magnum Photo Agency. Hoepker's notable success as a chronicler of world events is reflected in an exemplary archive of images: events of global significance are dealt with with the same aplomb as the striking reality of daily life.

This book turns the reader into an eye witness of decisive chapters of world history, such as the cold world, the fall of the Berlin Wall, and September 11th. It is in part because of Hoepker's images that these events have become branded in our collective memory.

Also available as a Collector's Edition.
