In 2000, the internationally renowned jazz musician Johannes Barthelmes buys his first camera and from then on he begins to work intensively with photography. His subject is the human being. His passion belongs to street-, travel-, portrait- and nude photography.
His approach can be aptly described as “extempore” (Latin: out of the moment). Basically improvisations as he knows them from his musical life. Compositions from the impromptu and yet in terms of craftsmanship, design and content at a high level.
“As a musician, I got around the world and it fascinated me that all the people I looked in the face were known, even familiar. It’s impressive, we all know each other….
As a photographer today, I experience this amazing story even more intensely and with respect, and despite my deliberately close images, at a loving distance from the people.”
