LOBA 2022 - Newcomer Interview
Valentin Goppel in conversation with Ulrich Rüter (LFI Magazine)
The Leica Oskar Barnack Award Newcomer 2022 goes to the German photographer Valentin Goppel. For his series “Between the Years” he was honoured in the young talent category of the LOBA.
Young adults in times of Corona: in his series, the German photographer explores the effects of the pandemic on his generation. He, too, had to experience the sudden break away from habits, and come to terms with the feelings of insecurity that determined every plan, as well as the future. Corona became a catalyst for progressive disorientation. Goppel’s pictures speak of the strange forlornness affecting an entire generation.
