Going to Tirana Albania in 2000, a city relatively at peace, Jens Leibchen began to notice many of the stereotypes of modern war photography were all present. Shattered windows, "bombed out" buildings (in fact under constrcution), refugee-like figures haunting the streets, rubble and armed "combatants". From the introduction by Ian Jeffrey "Normally, of course, we choose to see it as authentic, as thruthful reportage. In this respect Liebchen's is a subversive work, although in actuality he is merely asking us to reflect on our expectations" Item #7083
