Ivo von Renner - Ivo von Renner Gebunden

Ivo von Renner (b. Hamburg 1949 lives in Hamburg works around the world) is best known as the creator of iconic advertising photographs for campaigns by VW Triumph-Adler and Pernod. With To You from Afar the photographer artist and traveler now presents a very personal book. More than two hundred postcards he wrote to his family over the past three decades add up to a moving portrait of the comforts of home as well as the lure of distant lands. Moments and years places and scenes gripping plots and spontaneous ideas coalesce around deftly arranged tableaus to tell an irresistible sto ry that spans the globe. It invites explorers and dreamers the curious and the restless to discover an important truth: wherever our voyages take us the most important souvenir we return with is the sense of being a little more at home with ourselves. With a preface by Wolfgang Joop.
