Ellen von Unwerth. Heimat. Art Edition No. 101–200 ‘The Cooks’
2500Welcome to Heimat
An enchanted trip through Bavaria with Ellen von Unwerth
Ellen von Unwerth’s puckish humor pervades the pages of Heimat, an enchanted tour around Bavaria. The renowned fashion and music photographer revisits her childhood homeland to shoot a posse of gorgeous girls out for fun and adventure amid the region’s undulating fields; age-old traditions; and deep, mysterious forests.
As they happily discard their dirndls and run riot across the countryside, von Unwerth’s heroines demonstrate the attributes and attractions of the region, whether munching on pretzels, striding out across pristine pastures, or seducing lederhosen-clad farmhands (and each other). Blending old-world charm with a rebellious edge and a sly subversion of traditional gender roles, Heimat bursts with fresh, provocative eroticism, tied up with wit, laced with an abiding love for a proud and beautiful region.
Art Edition (No. 101–200), each with original photo print The Cooks, signed by Ellen von Unwerth.
Also available as three additional Art Editions of 100 copies each, with alternative signed prints, and as a signed Collector's Edition (No. 401–1,900).
