Edited by Nadine Barth. Foreword by F.C. Gundlach.
With Esther’s World, the acclaimed German fashion photographer Esther Haase offers up a treasure chest filled with her favorite pictures. Haase studied ballet and worked in theater before turning to photography. She has worked for major magazines and international clients for more than 25 years, moving between fashion, (celebrity) portrait and reportage. Her oeuvre is characterized by a particular lightness or geniality: the women come across as cheerful and larksome, yet they are always self-determined and strong, sexy and stylish. For Haase, narrative is the goal, whether by means of motion blur; lyrical, delicate, or brash colors; or black and white rich in contrast. Some images seem like cinematic dreams, while others are baroque stagings or comical snapshots. With Esther’s World, Haase opens a treasure chest filled with her favorite pictures.
Esther Haase was born in Germany in 1966, the daughter of an artist and a photography and design professor. International commercial and editorial clients, exhibitions and published books including Sexy Book and Short Stories have all contributed to her growing success. Haase lives in Hamburg and London.
PRAISE AND REVIEWS
Creative Boom
Katy Cowan
Her pictures celebrate the pleasure of being alive, passionate, self-confident games with sexuality, breaking out of the rigid corset of everyday life—and, above all, human beings as a whole: adventurous, bold, erotic, occasionally melancholy and reflective, but always conscious and aware.
