FANTASTIC WORK OVERVIEW of German photographer Detlef Orlopp, born 1937, from 1956 to 1959 student of Otto Steinert, the important German photographer, teacher and protagonist of "Subjective photography", the most important German photography movement after the war. "For six decades now, Detlef Orlopp has been developing an extremely independent photographic oeuvre that is entirely dedicated to the sculptural diversity of landscapes and faces. The catalogue accompanying the exhibition of the same name at Museum Folkwang shows the photographer's ongoing border crossings between his work on the image and his fascination with the morphological richness of our earth. Orlopp's photographic perspective transforms the surface of the landscape into a designed and reduced image at the same time, but without losing touch with the subject. Mountain formations, glaciers and water surfaces, but also faces, are among the photographer's repeatedly varied groups of motifs."
