The collections reflect something of the diversity and practice of Reichardt’s photography: capturing events and people on his travels to Cuba, a personal photographic diary filled with the contradictions and beauty of everyday live. – The print collections offer you the opportunity to purchase an original print, signed and numbered.

MALECON
The closer the evening sun moves toward the horizon, the busier it gets on Havanas favorite waterfront promenade – the Malecón. Couples sit on the wall in love, anglers cast their bait, people stroll, chat and laugh. While the salt, the sun, and economic difficulties have taken their toll, the colors have faded and there are large scars in the masonry, it still exudes its own morbid charm..

” It’s about finding order in what may at first seem like chaos. It’s about simplifying what you see and distilling everything into a single, coherent frame. Classic compositional techniques like leading lines, foreground, symmetry and rules of thirds come into play and it’s all about finding the right spot; – all this takes time. But there is also the reverse, you are ‘at one’ with time and ‘are’ in the right place, along with what is happening around you. You are no longer looking for the right detail, the images come to you, you just have to take them in, because you have earned them by walking to them. Step by step. And with each step you’ve forgotten something about yourself and at the same time you learned something new.” j.a.reichardt

The Salesman
“The salesman sits still at the sales window, waiting for passers-by who want to buy something from the few things he has to offer. The grid seems to additionally cross him out in his cross-hatching and to underline his insignificance; only his gaze penetrates the grid and a vaguely undefined desire becomes visible, the cause of which he has long forgotten.”
