«Peter Lindbergh began working in Paris at about the same time as Paolo Rovers, sometimes working with the same magazines. And yet, his work began to develop in a different direction: the spectacular black and white photographs, rich contrasts, reflecting, as he himself says, his "melancholy German expressionistic beginning." The drama of his photographic series - the result of passion in cinema: his works are full of allusions to the work of many directors, from Fritz Lang to Jim Jarmusch, simultaneously reflecting his admiration of such diverse photographers as Lartigue or Blumenfeld ».
