War was yesterday, Riga is today, Reykjavík is tomorrow. What awaits around the next bend? A volcanic eruption? A sleeping sheep? Or a midsummer night's festival? Two photographers explore and sense Iceland in all seasons, the land of mythical beauty and rapid weather changes, the island in the Atlantic where the earth's embers touch the eternal ice. Heike Ollertz has captured the full power of the lonely landscapes in stunning color images, while Edgar Herbst gets unusually close to the people and their raw energy in his black-and-white photographs. A photo book full of contrasts about a country that holds its secrets deep within and can be much warmer than its climate.
