Katrin Thomas. Exits. Living Fashion

-Edition Stemmle (1999)-. First edition first impression 1999. 128 pages. Illustrated in colour. Cloth. Very good indeed in dustjacket with edge wear and tear. The photographer Katrin Thomas moves adeptly between the opposing poles of fashion and art photography. She employs a technique of staged improvisation in dealing with existing aesthetic concepts, exposing the familiar cliches of the omnipresent media with a fine sense of irony. Her photos cannot be overlooked. They draw attention to themselves, yet do not impose themselves with torrents of color or experimental arrangements. Instead, they create the impression that the photographer is telling a story, a mysterious narrative related in quiet tones, based upon a screenplay. In both sequences and single photos, her pictures describe close relationships between the actors in her scenes, the locations and the situations in which they are staged. Given such a consistent approach, and one that is encountered more frequently in cinematic art, it comes as no surprise that Katrin Thomas has indeed worked with moving images and produced several short films.
