Peter Bialobrzeski Norderney Diary

In his global, long-term project planned for fi › y volumes (begun in 2013), Peter Bialobrzeski
poses the question of whether the conception of the image of a city, shaped by prejudices,
pre-existing notions and media representations, can be translated into real images. For the
new four volumes, he travelled to New York, Norderney, Istanbul and Vilnius. He is interested
in the cultural diff erences visible in each cityscape. He poses the question of what has
already been superimposed by increasing globalisation, or what remains visible. With his
consistent, seemingly objectifying visual language, this epochal, documentary experiment
can be wonderfully comprehended in each book and especially by comparing the individual
books, for example for New York or Norderney.
