AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Café Lehmitz
Anders Petersen

Rare pocket edition published in 1985, the absolute favorite of the author himself.

A bar in Hamburg which, for its decadent image, inspired the photographs of the Swedish photographer so much that this book became a true cult object, a manifesto of the 70s. Petersen began photographing Lehmitz not with the aim of conducting a social investigation, but simply, cultivating a diary-like approach to people and events. Drugs, prostitution, cross-dressing and life outside the rules were the ingredients of the small world photographed by Anders Petersen, a precursor with Ed Van Der Elsken, of a photographic genre that would inspire the style of authors now internationally known 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 presents itself in overall excellent condition. Cover intact with widespread yellowing. Paperback well bound. Interior pages clean without creases or stains. An excellent collector's copy.
