AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Café Lehmitz
Anders Petersen

A rare pocket edition published in 1985, the author’s absolute favorite.

A bar in Hamburg which, for its decadent image, inspired the photographs of the Swedish photographer to such an extent that this book became a true cult object, a manifesto of the 1970s. Petersen began photographing Lehmitz not with the aim of carrying out a social survey, but simply by cultivating a diaristic approach to the people and events. Drugs, prostitution, cross-dressing and life outside the rules were the ingredients of the small world photographed by Anders Petersen, a pioneer together with Ed Van Der Elsken, of a photographic genre that would inspire the style of authors today internationally known such as Nan Goldin, JH Engström or Antoine D’Agata.

Petersen A., Anderson R.; Café Lehmitz. Paperback, 12.5 x 19 cm, 116 pages, German language; Frankfurt am Main, 1985.

The volume is presented in generally good condition. Cover with signs of yellowing. Softcover firmly bound. Inner pages clean, without creases or stains. Black mark on the upper edge. Good collectible copy.
