Description
What happens when street photography, conceptual art, and documentation are combined? The result is a unique panorama of images, whose versatility allows it to capture the sometimes abysmal, sometimes dazzling multiple facets of Bangkok.
The photographer Peter Nitsch has captured the streets, people, and life in the Thai capital with his sensitive feel for the right moment and the special detail. This illustrated book turns readers into companions on his visual tour of discovery. Nitsch's camera makes us see the city's rhythm as a tango, which owes its idiosyncratic movement to the interaction of different cultures.
A comparison that not only rhymes with mango (Bangkok's nickname) but also translates the sweet and sour taste of the fruit into visual intoxication.
