Gosbert Gottmann Ware Liebe
Gottmann's photographic gaze focuses in on the heart shapes to be found everywhere in the urban environment, for example on billboards and t-shirts. The metaphor of the human heart is seen here against the foil of the omnipresent advertising pervading an emotionally frigid consumer society, which is evidently made up of lovelorn individuals. Wolfgang Schmidbauer, who writes about The Cold Heart (Das kalte Herz), and Gosbert Gottmann both seem to sense the same patterns in society: the psychoanalyst as a specialist for emotions, the photographer as an expert on image research.
