Albrecht Fuchs approaches his subjects by stripping them from their profession and rather enhancing their human side. He manages to make intimate images of individuals who just happen to be known. Fuchs uses colour photography and puts his subjects in their natural environment (backyards, living rooms, beds, couches or studios), by doing so his subjects, looking straight at the spectator, have a relaxed yet distant posture. As such, the images suggest a controlled and posed moment, but also present the viewer with the possibility of entering the artist’s world.
