Inès Pietz Menschen im Club

"The best disco is the photographed or filmed disco. Or did you ever experience nights as exciting as those in Studio 54?" Mark Peschke People in the Club is not a photo book of understatement, but rather a visit to a disco in condensed form. The young photographer Inès Pietz visited Frankfurt's King-Kamehameha Club repeatedly for two and a half years, seeking to capture its sounds, atmosphere, and unmistakable people in images. Based on her many years of experience, the photographer also took time for personal moments with those portrayed. Her perspective is thus not limited to nocturnal portraits. Inèz Pietz approached people who caught her eye; she visited them at home and discovered their essence. The result is individual chapters providing photographic and in part handwritten insight into the lives of individual night owls. In these "rest areas" of the club book, polaroids are combined and collaged with everyday objects that sketch the life and passion of the individual. The person-related graphic treatment suffuses each of the short stories with an unmistakable diary character. Inès Pietz displays the fast pace of the club atmosphere in shimmering snapshots, which alternate with the carefully staged photos in the individual chapters. The seemingly effortless impressions of these iridescent scenes are the spoils of resolute returning. The expressive and revealing portraits of individual persons are the result of empathy and a knowledge of human nature.
