BACK IN STOCK! Karlheinz Weinberger: Swiss Rebels

We’ve never been able to keep a book on Swiss cult photographer Karlheinz Weinberger in stock for more than a few weeks (or even days), so avid are his admirers. So we're delighted to report that we’ve just received a new shipment of Swiss Rebels, Steidl’s superb overview spaning from the early 1950s through the year of his death, 2006. Essayist Daniela Janser writes, “Weinberger’s lusty portraits of men are… visually expressive, free-spirited, and self-confident replies to a fundamental social question of the post-war era: How (and where), in a society still largely homophobic but in any case heteronormative, can a gay photographer photograph men who attracted him?”
