Online auction sites often show photographs where details or sections of the photograph have been covered up due to privacy and/or censorship issues. As a result sellers are forced to come up with smart and practical solutions so that the photograph conforms to privacy and censorship guidelines but still show enough of the image to interest prospective buyers. This version of 'Ein Volk ehrt seiner Führer' was purchased at an online auction. Coins were used to censor the images.

NOWHERE shows a world in which Instagrammability seems to rule; in which the new reality is dictated by the seductive image that may (later) be made of it. Architecture, design and urban landscape, directed by the mechanisms of global big business. The same antiseptic beauty, all over the world.

Susannah Stracer’s 'Another world out there' spans over three decades of outdoors photography. Although her main subject is people, it would be a mistake to call it social. No stories are being told, no deeper context is suggested. A split second of reality is captured and being transported into the universe of aesthetics. Susannah doesn’t participate, she doesn’t interfere - she takes scenes from the everyday outdoors and elevates them into the higher reality of light and shadow, lines...
