About this title

Synopsis

Externally, Karlheinz Weinberger led an unspectacular life. His youth was peaceful, albeit quite modest. Work as a carpet and furniture seller. With 34 years of employment as a warehouse at Siemens, where he remained until his retirement. He lived in the same house in Zurich Circle 4.
Already as a sixteen-year-old he discovered the medium of photography for himself. In his spare time, he photographed semi-strong, rockers, bikers and tattooed people and in over sixty years of his photographic work he depicted the backs of the bourgeois world in Switzerland. But his work goes beyond this: sports photographs, pictures of folk culture and homo erotic images can also be found in his legacy. Weinberger's photographic work reflects his life, his homosexuality and his fascination for virile worlds.
Patrik Schedler mentored Karlheinz Weinberger artistically in his last years of life and became one of his familiars. The photographer, which became internationally renowned late, left hardly any written things, but along his work and his narratives, Patrik Schedler traces his unusual life between bourgeois everyday life and the fascination for people on the edge of society.
