Publisher's Synopsis
Both pathos and distance play a role in the work of Andreas Muhe. Pathos becomes distance, and this distance becomes a precondition that allows for pathos. Muhe's themes are often ambiguous, already emotional, and charged by their respective historical context: Christmas trees, chancellors, the chalk cliffs on Rugen, the Obersalzberg. The photographs by Andreas Muhe are accompanied by excerpts from the novel 1913 The Year before the Storm, by Florian Illies.
