COLLIER SCHORR – NEIGHBOURS
Collier Schorr is an American photographer who has been working on and off in Southern Germany for the past 12 years. In that time she has compiled a portrait of a small town that is both documentary and fictional, centred around the idea of a town haunted by historical inhabitants. For Schorr, the German landscape is a map of her own history, both imagined and inherited. Combining the overlapping roles of war photographer, traveling portraitist, anthropologist and family historian, in this series, entitled Forests and Fields, Schorr tells the interwoven stories of a place and time determined by memory, nationalism, war, emigration and family.
