Beat Streuli

Streuli's central motif is the urban environment and its inhabitants. But his photographs are neither documentary nor conceptual: rather they lead us to a form of aesthetics that one could describe as the "glamour of the usual." * * In this publication he has reunited a new series of images taken in Brussels. Large-scale portraits of passerby and inhabitants of the city compel the viewer to look at the European capital as a metropol, whose melting-pot is forging our new cultural identity. * * Published with MAC's, Grand Hornu, Belgium.
