Die Deutschen (The Germans)
by René Burri

This week in 1989, the Berlin Wall was torn down. Die Deutschen is a definitive portrait and history of the complex, changing German nation, which continues to undergo great transitions. The third edition was published in 1999 by Robert Delpire.

It's about reacting to what you see, hopefully without preconception. You can find pictures anywhere. It's simply a matter of noticing things and organizing them. You just have to care about what's around you and have a concern with humanity and the human comedy.
