Taken between 2010 and 2013, they feature known subjects such as Iris Berben, Boris Becker, Wladimir Klitschko, Andrea Sawatzki and Jonathan Meese.\n\n\nFrom the Back Cover\n\nRomney Müller-Westernhagen’s solo show “Beyond Faces” at Camera Work Berlin in 2012 presented a large body of her powerful portraits. Following its success, Steidl is now releasing in book form a new selection of these portraits, taken between 2010 and 2014. Müller-Westernhagen’s varied subjects featured include Frank-Walter Steinmeier, Iris Berben, Boris Becker, Wladimir Klitschko, Andrea Sawatzki and Jonathan Meese.\n\n\"As a former illustrator and graphic artist I’ve always seen everything around me within a frame. Interesting faces surround us on a daily basis. Everywhere we look there’s someone with a countenance that fascinates or puzzles. I’ve found studying faces to be a very intimate way of uncovering the hidden side of an individual. When my subject is in front of the camera I encourage them to connect with me in a more unguarded way than they might normally. With celebrities or politicians my goal is always to show the viewer a side that is unknown. Famous faces are not always as familiar to us as we think they are. Everyone has a secret. I try to discover it.\" Romney Müller-Westernhagen","brand":"Steidl Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39656643559509,"sku":"9783869308173N","price":38.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2481\/5790\/products\/483f1cb9-db97-4e06-b58f-e9ad4e795ee1_41185b5d-e405-4e4f-8cf3-62113b664649.jpg?v=1644299864","url":"https:\/\/smeikalbooks.co.uk\/en-us\/products\/romney-muller-westernhagen-portraits-1","provider":"smeikalbooks","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
