This book is a limited first edition collection of photographs by Rineke Dijkstra, featuring her renowned portraits of adolescents in bathing suits captured in the 1990s. The 56-page hardcover showcases 18 color plates, printed on heavy matt paper, designed by Weiersmüller Bosshard Grüninger. An essay by Birgid Uccia accompanies the images, translated in German and English, along with a biography, exhibition history, bibliography, and awards. The portrayal echoes the styles of Diane Arbus and August Sander, presenting adolescent subjects with a sensitive yet authoritative approach.
