Photographs by Thomas Florscheutz, with essays by JP Jacob and Christoph Tannert
Thomas Florscheutz won First Prize for New Photography by European Photography magazine in 1987, and was among the first East German photographers to receive international recognition. After including him in Out of Eastern Europe, Jacob introduced Florscheutz to Jeffrey Hoone at Light Works in Syracuse, NY, and to Steven High at the Anderson Art Gallery, Richmond, VA. High had hosted Out of Eastern Europe at the Baxter Art Gallery, Portland, ME. Florscheutz was later invited for a residency at Light Works, and, after High moved on to the Anderson, a one-person exhibition there; Jacob contributed a catalog essay.
