Die Themen und Motive der Photographien von Helga Paris erscheinen schlicht und alltäglich und vermitteln gleichzeitig Würde und Eleganz. 1984 verbrachte die deutsche Photographin Helga Paris mehrere Wochen in einer volkseigenen Bekleidungsfabrik in Ost-Berlin und fertigte in dieser Zeit mehr als 1.500 Aufnahmen. Die vorliegende Publikation zeigt erstmals 49 ausgewählte Porträts, die Helga Paris für ihre Serie Frauen in der Kleiderfabrik VEB Treff-Modelle Berlin ausgewählt hat. Die Bilder zeigen ihre Porträtierten in Momenten der Ruhe inmitten der Fabrikumgebung. Aus der engen Vertrautheit mit den Arbeiterinnen und ihrem Umfeld entstanden berührende Porträts, die die Porträtierten in kurzen Momenten der Ruhe zeigen.Sprachen: Deutsch, Englisch

Summary

Paris’ photographic chronicle of a 1980s factory remains one of her foremost accomplishments
In 1984, the German photographer Helga Paris (born 1938) spent several weeks at a state-owned clothing factory, during which time she shot more than 1,500 photographs. From these she selected the 49 powerful images that make up the series Women at the Clothing Factory VEB Treff-Modelle Berlin. These photographs capture her subjects engaged in their work or taking cigarette breaks, conveying the serenity and beauty of the sitters in their brief moments of tranquility amid the factory environment. Helga Paris: Women at Work collects the entire series and gathers it in a format that is affordable to a wider audience. This beautifully designed volume features a linen-bound printed cover with embossed text.
