The article focuses on the photograph "Aims" by Albert Renger-Patzsch published in his book "Die Welt ist schön." According to Renger-Patzsch, the subjective impulses associated with fine art, such as private expression and emotional lyricism, were out of place in the scientific and visual rhyming. The author relates that the impulse to totality apparent in his works must be set in its historical context to grasp its significance, for it comes in the wake of a wide-scale withdrawal from the modern world of necessity in the realms of metaphysics, religion, and politics. |
