Collections: Kai Bienert
Kai Bienert is where the music happens – right in the middle of it, not in front of it. For many years, he has accompanied musicians on stage, through everyday life on tour and in intimate backstage moments. His camera captures not only images, but atmospheres: the vibrant light, the tension before the first note, the exhaustion after the final applause.
His gaze is incorruptible, his style unmistakable. Bienert's photographs show music in its purest form – raw, real, full of energy and emotion. In doing so, he manages to create closeness without losing distance. No one else is as close to the artists and the audience, no one else knows how to capture the magic of the moment in a single image.
No one is as close as he is – Kai Bienert.
