Paul Albert Leitner

"The whole world is a picture, writes Austrian photographer Paul Albert Leitner in the first line of his photographic ""novel"". A remarkable grab bag of images - from bucolic nature to a discarded Christmas tree, construction debris to the creamy thighs of a female nude - come together to describe the artist's world. Leitner writes: ""An old lady observes. A monkey copulates. They are happy in Berlin... In Paris they meet Santa Claus who gives them his garter belt. The Daiquiri tastes like a glacier and they cite Hemingway in Havana."""
