My Greek Village
A Swiss Photographer’s Greek Village

von Wolfgang Bernauer

My Greek Village is a metaphor for an idealised place that embodies much of what we aspire to in life: interpersonal relationships, closeness, clarity, reliability, family and identity. It represents the loss of many values, as we have seen and lamented in our globalized world. It is an expression of the sorrow we feel when familiar and cherished objects, structures and rituals disappear from our lives.My Greek Village sharpens our view of the transience of established structures and gives us hope that we will succeed in handling our cultural heritage in a respectful, protective manner.My Greek Village makes us reflect on the most important, authentic values in life, because this Greek village is not just in Greece; it is a place that exists everywhere in our globalized world, a place of longing that needs to be seen and preserved, protected and defended, and a place that exists, above all, in our hearts.My Greek Village is the English and Greek edition of the original German title Mein griechisches Dorf by Wolfgang Bernauer.
