Subject: a new Artimo publication 


OUT NOW a new Artimo publication 
In almost every picture


In almost every picture is a collection of hundreds of photos 
taken by a husband of his wife during the years 1956 to 1968. 
They are remarkable for their consistency. They are relaxed, 
but arranged. Amateur, and professional at the same time. 
Everyday, yet unique. The collection was found on a Spanish 
flea market. The photographer and his model are ^Ö until now ^Ö 
unidentified. The wife is the centre of the image and gracefully 
poses in almost every picture. During twelve years we travel 
with her to different places. We see her age, and her hairstyles 
change. So does her taste in fashion. 

After seeing a few of the portraits, we can instantly recognise the 
photographer^Òs style. First he carefully composes, then he takes the 
photograph, has it developed, and writes the date and location on 
the picture before, finally, adding it to the collection. Then he 
starts all over again.

The collection is unique because it turned out to be a reportage of 
twelve years that wasn^Òt planned. The way the pictures are organised 
in In almost every picture was never intended. It gives us a chance 
to look inside a private collection of memories. If any relatives of 
the photographer or the subject come forward, the photos will be 
dutifully returned.

In almost every picture is a KesselsKramer book. Collected, edited 
and designed by Erik Kessels. Words by Tyler Wisnand. Published by 
Artimo, Amsterdam.

The book will be presented in the Actar gallery RAS, starting February 21, 
2002. Address: Roca i Battle, E-08023, Barcelona.
