IN 1996 I STARTED SHOOTING A PERSONAL DOCUMENTARY SERIES ABOUT GERMAN FOOTBALL STADIUMS.
IN ANTICIPATION OF THE 2006 WORLD CUP HOSTED IN GERMANY I TOOK PICTURES OF ALMOST 28 STADIUMS,
MANY OF WHICH HAVE SINCE BEEN TORN DOWN AND REPLACED WITH BRAND NEW ARENAS.
TWO YEARS AGO I BEGAN SHOOTING THE NEW FOOTBALL STADIUMS AND IN 2015-2016 THE WHOLE PROJECT,
20 YEARS IN THE MAKING, WILL BE SHOWN IN A PUBLICATION.
AS A SNEAK PEAK OF THIS SERIES, FOUR OF MY IMAGES TAKEN AT VOLKSPARK STADIUM, HAMBURG, WILL BE ON
DISPLAY AT THE BFF EXHIBITION/06. AUFSCHLAG. THIS SELECTION, TAKEN ONE YEAR BEFORE THE STADIUM WAS
TORN DOWN IN ’97, IS MY HOMAGE TO THE GLORY DAYS OF THE HAMBURGER SV.
QUO VADIS HSV?
