For a German soccer enthusiast like Juergen Teller (born 1964), Summer 2014 couldn't have been any better. The German national team won the World Cup in Brazil, and Teller was passionately present every step of the way. This new volume, Siegerflieger (literally "the victors' plane," the affectionate name given to the German team's customized jumbo) unfolds in typical diary-like Teller fashion. Yet Teller's obsession with soccer remains center stage, whether he's watching the final live on TV or welcoming home the triumphant team at the Brandenburg Gate.

Though the most striking images are those that show him and his son cheering along as the Nationalmannschaft wins the finals against Argentina, their faces alternately distorted by hope and disappointment during the match, to grimacing with ecstasy after the final whistle.

Interview
The Editors
Juergen Teller's latest book, Siegerflieger (Steidl), is not only a photo diary that documents days in his life this past summer, it is also a sort of paean to the German photographer's beloved national soccer team. In his raw, naturalistic style, Teller presents his friends, family, and students at various gatherings, with the World Cup taking center stage halfway through the book. In these casually intimate photos, we see Teller with his son, Ed, watching televised games with unrestrained emotion. We get a glimpse of the fanatical exuberance surrounding the run-up to the German team's championship-and we get to see it through Teller's very personal lens.

While Siegerflieger may look like a stranger’s awkward family photo album, underneath the naturalness, passion and emotion of this diary-like series lies some more profound truths.
