Hans Aarsman won in 2011 de Hendrik de Vriesprijs voor zijn gehele oeuvre. Dit boek is naar aanleiding daarvan verschenen.Uit het juryrapport: ‘Behalve met fotografie houdt Aarsman zich ook bezig met schrijven, en hij schrijft geweldig goed. In feite is zijn werk een effectieve vorm van cultuur- en kunstkritiek, gericht tegen de hype van de fotografie, en tegen consumentisme. Noties van originaliteit en signatuur zijn hem vreemd. Hij vindt wat hij zoekt op straat, en daarmee zet hij zijn pub...
