PORTRAITS (2006)

German photographer Ingar Krauss captures a rare, unvarnished portrait of youth across Eastern Europe and rural Germany. Rejecting sentimental stereotypes of childhood, Krauss presents solemn, guarded, and fiercely present portraits of children and adolescents, many of whom were photographed in state institutions, orphanages, and former Soviet summer camps. Accompanied by insightful essays from renowned art critics Vince Aletti and Ulf Erdmann Ziegler, Portraits stands as a monumental work in contemporary portrait photography, at once quiet, powerful, and deeply moving.
