Dirk Reinartz. Fotografieren, was ist
In the organizer's words:
Dirk Reinartz (1947-2004) is one of the most important photojournalists and image authors of the late Federal Republic and reunified Germany. Throughout his life, he was in search of motifs in which a German identity could be recognized, with all its contradictions and historical anchors.
This also includes German-German relations, which were repeatedly the subject of his photojournalistic work, for example in articles on GDR resettlers (1984), people in the twin cities of Jena and Erlangen (1987), migrants from the FRG to the GDR (1989) or on the zonal border area (1983).
Even after German reunification in 1990, he looked for differences and similarities and observed the processes of finding a new all-German society. Reinartz succeeded in capturing socio-political developments, upheavals and concrete life situations of people in subtle photographic narratives using a precise and pointed visual language.
