Distro - Germany by Burri.1957-1997 

Rene Burri 

In May 1999 Berlin will, after 50 years, again become the Capital of Germany, the symbol of the reunification of the Germans.

The book "The Germans" by René Burri is one of the landmarks of contemporary photojournalism. From 1957 to 1964 he has captured the essence of a people on both sides of the wall. This selection includes additional photos until 1997, covering the scars and the hopes of a Nation.
