Her serial photographs concentrate on the crucial moment between standstill and motion in dance, soccer, pole vaulting, or fencing. The black-and-white photographs give the trained bodies of the participants a sculptural quality that is intensified by the carefully selected framing and composition as well as the elaborate lighting. Oliver Bierhoff, former national all-star and manager of the German men\u0026rsquo;s soccer team, was surprised by Schmeken\u0026rsquo;s special view of \u0026ldquo;his\u0026rdquo; discipline, which led to a collaborative project: from early 2011 onward, the photographer accompanied the national team to international games, including the 2012 European championships in Poland and the Ukraine. This publication documents the men\u0026rsquo;s encounter and play with the ball as if it were choreography\u0026mdash;captured from an impressive perspective.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003c!--?xml:namespace prefix = \"o\" ns = \"urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office\" \/--\u003e\u003co:p\u003e\u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u0026nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 0pt\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"FONT-FAMILY: TheSans; mso-ansi-language: EN-US\"\u003eExhibition schedule: Martin-Gropius-Bau, Berlin opening November 2012 | Dortmunder U April 2\u0026ndash;September 28, 2014\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44425460252936,"sku":"9783775734400","price":14.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775734400_f25fedc7-1a81-44f1-a961-e446cd7a5c9c.jpg?v=1744129165","url":"https:\/\/www.hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/17202-regina-schmeken","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
