This week I got myself a library card for the the University of Duisburg-Essen. Turns out, they have quite the selection of photo books. Today I took home my first batch: I went with Martin Parr and Lee Friedlander. Some other books I really wanted to look at are in their vault (eg. because they are very rare and deserve special treatment), which means they can only be viewed at the library – which unfortunately is not possible at the moment, because of Corona restrictions. For now though, I have six books to read/look at over the next four weeks.
