Von 0 auf 100: Menschen jeden Alters

100 Menschen aus Amsterdam. Alle unterschiedlich alt. In aufsteigendem Alter werden sie uns präsentiert. Und auch wenn das nicht neu ist (gab es zum Beispiel beim Trommeln bereits), ist die Idee immer wieder toll und die Umsetzung beachtenswert. Zusammen immerhin satt 5.050 Jahre! Denn ganz so einfach, wie sich das liest, ist die Zusammenstellung gar nicht, was auch der Beschreibungstext zeigt:

„My aim was to ‚collect‘ a group of 100 people, from age 0 to 100. At first my collection grew fast but slowed down when it got down to the very young and very old. The young because of sensivity around filming or photographing children and the very old because they don’t get out of the house much. I found my very old ‚models‘ in care homes and it was a privilege to document these -often vulnerable- people for this project. I had particular problems finding a 99 year-old. (Apparently 100 year-olds enjoy notoriety, but a 99 year-old is a rare species…) And when I finally did find one, she refused to state her age. She simply denied being 99 years old! But finally, some 4 months after I recorded my first ‚age‘, I was able to capture the ‚missing link‘ and conclude this project. Enjoy.“
