In his epoch-making book "Before They Pass Away", Jimmy Nelson captures the way of life of the last remaining peoples, who manage to maintain their traditional customs in a globalized world. The British photographer's epic portraits show these dignified heirs of centuries-old traditions in a proud spirit and in all their glory.

This panoramic view of the world's tribal cultures is a unique visual experience and, above all, an important historical document. The book shows the whole range of human experiences and the cultural manifestations over the centuries - and we are overjoyed to be able to present it in our autumn program.

Tribal cultures from all over the world are at the center of this historically significant volume. Especially in times of globalization, these societies cannot be valued highly enough because of their characteristic ways of life, arts and traditions. Its members live in harmony with nature, which has become a rarity in our modern age.

Jimmy Nelson presents us not only with breathtaking images of customs and artefacts, but also with sensitive portraits of people who have become custodians of a culture that they - and we - hope to pass on to future generations in all their glory becomes. Nelson captures every fine detail and every tiny nuance for posterity with his Laufboden large format camera and presents numerous scenes of this magnificent spectacle against the vivid backgrounds of the most untouched landscapes of our planet.
In seinem epochalen Bildband "Before They Pass Away" fängt Jimmy Nelson die Lebensweise der letzten verbliebenen Völker ein, denen es gelingt, in einer globalisierten Welt ihre überlieferten Bräuche aufrechtzuerhalten. Die epischen Porträts des britischen Fotografen zeigen diese würdevollen Erben jahrhundertealter Traditionen in einem stolzen Geist und in all ihrer Pracht.

Dieser Rundumblick auf die Stammeskulturen der Welt ist ein einzigartiges visuelles Erlebnis und vor allem auch ein bedeutendes historisches Dokument. Das Buch zeigt die ganze Bandbreite menschlicher Erfahrungen und die kulturellen Ausprägungen über die Jahrhunderte - und wir sind überglücklich, es in unserem Herbstprogramm präsentieren zu können.

Im Mittelpunkt dieses historisch bedeutsamen Bandes stehen Stammeskulturen aus aller Welt. Gerade in Zeiten der Globalisierung können diese Gesellschaften wegen ihrer charakteristischen Lebensweisen, Künste und Traditionen nicht hoch genug geschätzt werden. Ihre Mitglieder leben im Einklang mit der Natur, was in unserem modernen Zeitalter zur Seltenheit geworden ist.

Jimmy Nelson beschenkt uns nicht nur mit atemberaubenden Bildern von Bräuchen und Artefakten, sondern auch mit einfühlsamen Porträts von Menschen, die zu Hütern einer Kultur geworden sind, von der sie - und wir - hoffen, dass sie in all ihrer Pracht auch an künftige Generationen weitergegeben wird. Mit seiner Laufboden-Großformatkamera fängt Nelson jedes noch so feine Detail und jede winzige Nuance für die Nachwelt ein und präsentiert zahlreiche Szenen dieses prächtigen Schauspiels vor den lebendigen Hintergründen der noch unberührtesten Landschaften unseres Planeten.


This historic volume showcases tribal cultures around the world. With globalization, these societies are to be prized for their distinctive lifestyles, art and traditions. They live in close harmony with nature, now a rarity in our modern era.

Nelson's large-plate field camera captures every intricate detail and fine nuance for posterity. What's more, this splendid pageantry is set against a vivid backdrop of some of the world's most pristine landscapes.
