Newsletter - February 2014

We made it to 3.000 portraits and ANDERSRUMportrait® goes international!

After three wonderful photo shoots during the winter we now actually photographed 3.000 people, who present themselves each with individual ANDERSRUMportraits and set a mark against homo- phobia!

We´re really happy about this great response and support and look forward to a new ANDERSRUMportrait® exhibition.

ANDERSRUMportrait® is your personal contribution for more diversity and against homophobia.

Best wishes
Alexa Seewald & Team

1. Previous photo shoots

Photo shoot at New Year Reception in Hamburg town hall

ANDERSRUMportrait® was invited to have a photo shoot against homophobia at the queer New Year Reception at Hamburg town hall for the second time. Spirits were high and the atmosphere familiar, while the magnificent historic ambiance encouraged extraordinary motives- like group portraits with racing bikes or "bare facts".

Photo shoot at Chicago Cultural Center

In December 2013 ANDERSRUMportrait® had two big US photo shoots in Chicago, one of them right beneath the world's largest Tiffany stained-glass dome at "Chicago’s Cultural Center".

Among the participants were numerous guest of the Chicago Fashion Congress, taking place in Chicago at the same time. Due to their professional fashion sense many splendid motives with a high quality touch were created.

Artist talk with two photography classes

Additionally, an artist talk with ANDERSRUMportrait® took part in two photography classes at "North Shore Country Day School" in Chicago.
