EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Love me or leave me" from the series "Boy meets girl" by Dieter Matthes captures a moment of raw emotion in an abandoned street. The image features an old woman standing next to a broken sculpture, her coat billowing in the wind as she looks off into the distance with a mix of disappointment and resignation on her face.
The scene conveys a sense of loneliness and decay, with the worn-down statue symbolizing forgotten love and lost connections. The contrast between the lady's stoic expression and the crumbling surroundings adds depth to the composition, inviting viewers to reflect on themes of abandonment and degeneration.
Displayed at a museum exhibition in Munich, Germany, this photograph evokes both humor and sadness as it explores the complexities of human relationships. The monochrome aesthetic enhances the timeless quality of the image, drawing attention to details like torn fabric and weathered stone that speak to the passage of time.
As we gaze upon this poignant artwork, we are reminded of our own vulnerabilities and impermanence in a world where love can be fleeting. Matthes' work invites us to contemplate what it means to truly connect with others amidst life's inevitable challenges.
