Hope he picks up blogging again. Love his work on Youtube, but blogging is a different vibe.
Simone Nieweg
Via the detour of the Düsseldorf Schule I found Simone Nieweg. Of course I was familiar with Gursky and Struth, but Nieweg was unknown to me. Her work distinguishes a bit from the other Düsseldorfers. Nieweg’s subject matter is rural, nature, trees and plants, and her view is somehow introvert, as opposed to most Dusseldorfers who have this extravert, grand expression in their work. Nieweg makes a picture of a cabbage, a shed and a forest.

Great questions, better answers about photo book making.
Asking myself what a book of the combined creative forces Gerhard Steidl and Irma Boom would look like.
