MUSIC PHOTOGRAPHY

The early 1990s: Werner Amann’s Kein Morgen
(No Tomorrow) brings together photographs
of parties, raves, and afterhours clubs. The
faces the photographer captures reflect the
ecstasy of a moment of awakening, a glimmer
of autonomy and freedom.
The pictures were taken in Berlin, Frankfurt,
Dortmund, New York, Zurich, Paris, and
Riccione, in clubs like Omen, Tresor, E-Werk,
Limelight, Tunnel, and Sound Factory as well
as raves such as Mayday and the Berlin Love
Parade. Leif Rand’s short texts for Kein Morgen
look back at this period from the vantage point
of today, a quarter of a century later. We are left
with an abiding sense of a historical moment of
understanding and affinity.
