Photographic Portraits Berlin - Hardcover

by Alan Luft (Photographer), Stephen Brockmann (Contribution by)

Since 1985, Alan Luft has been documenting the city and its inhabitants: "Berlin today is a diverse mix of people, and I think it represents what the future will look like elsewhere. History is about individuals adapting, changing, and moving from one place to another."
