Wim Wenders

Wim Wenders, the distinguished filmmaker and co-founder of New German Cinema, is also a world-renowned photographer. He has exhibited his large-format, panoramic photographs in Paris, Hamburg, Berlin, Bilbao, Sydney, Shanghai, Rome, Sao Paulo, Moscow, Copenhagen, New York and Dusseldorf. Now, for the first time, this book - published to accompany an exhibition at London's Photographer's Gallery - presents his polaroids. Spanning the 1970s to the present day, they feature friends, actors and personal heroes, objects, places, spaces and situations from the everyday life of a travelling filmmaker.
