Paul Ripke became famous with his pictures of the World Cup in Rio de Janeiro, today he is an influencer, podcaster and positive thinker. He returns to photography for a documentary series.
Paul Ripke disagrees with Paul Ripke. That’s unusual. The photographer Ripke, 42, is standing in a small event location in the south of Cologne, which is now used as a studio for recordings for the small documentary series Galleripky for ARD Kultur about master photographers. Ripke introduces event photography, portrait photography, nature photography and street photography by following stars of the industry. Today the final part of the series is recorded: Ripke talks about selected photos that were taken during these excursions. The photos hang on partition walls that can be moved back and forth.
