In the accompanying catalogue (published by Steidl in 2011), he says about his experience: \u201cI keep my distance \u2013 the longer I stay there, the stranger everything seems to me.\u201d From a distance, that&#8217;s how we are forced to observe the Amish, whose way of life is too often romanticized as decorative calendar sheets. Rautert&#8217;s photographs however grant a glimpse into the world of the Amish, a glimpse that is characterized by authenticity and intimacy \u2013 despite the distance he kept out of respect for these people.<\/p>\n<p>The Timm Rautert exhibition was presented to accompany &#8222;The Longing For Colour&#8220;, an exhibition of Amish Quilts from the Schlumberger Collection, which includes artefacts from the past 150 years, pieces that were created as household items intended for daily use.<\/p>\n<p>The book is highly recommened, not only for the photographs, but for the accompanying text: (<a href=\"https:\/\/steidl.de\/Buecher\/No-Photographing-0734394553.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link<\/a>)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Project management for a photography exhibition with works by Timm Rautert.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1003,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"spay_email":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[52],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/02\/rautert_amish_01.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p7PCH0-g5","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/997"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=997"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/997\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1003"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=997"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=997"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tommibrem.de\/de\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=997"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
