Der Fischmarkt und die Fische(1968)
The portrait shows everyday life in the Portuguese fishing village of Sesimbra, south of Lisbon, at the time of Salazar's dictatorship in 1964. Mau's photos, e.g. fish spread out in geometric patterns, and Fichte's commentary support each other. But the word 'commentary' is misleading and does not adequately describe the poetic, reportage-like text.

Mapplethorpe: Look at the Pictures(en)
Nude men in rubber suits, close-ups of erections, objects shoved in the most intimate of places—these are photographs taken by Robert Mapplethorpe, known by many as the most controversial photographer of the twentieth century. Openly gay, Mapplethorpe took images of male sex, nudity, and fetish to extremes that resulted in his work still being labelled by some as pornography masquerading as art. But less talked about are the more serene, yet striking portraits of flowers, sculptures, and perfectly framed human forms that are equally pioneering and powerful.
