About me:
..This profile was edited with Thomas' myspace editor™ V2.5
Stanley Kubricks script author Terry Southern called Miron Zownir “The poet of radical photography”. Born in Karlsruhe in 1953, he moved to Berlin in 1976 and then went to the USA in 1981, where he spent 15 years in New York, Los Angeles and Pittsburgh. “Zownir is one of the greatest existentialist photographers of our time. His images are icons of lust, pain, hunger, madness, starvation and death.” (TIP Berlin; REVIEW: Radikal Eye – The Photography of Miron Zownir, Die Gestalten Verlag Berlin, 1997) During his time in America, he also directed several short underground films, some of them were made in collaboration with Alexandre Rockwell (IN THE SOUP) and Ruy Murakami (TOKYO DECADENCE) and his producer Chosei Funahara (ENEMY). With his awardwinning shortmovie against racism „Skinhead lane“( 35mm,1993), Zownir announced himself to be back in Germany. In 1995 he went to Russia where he pictured the rapid social and moral decline of the former Soviet Union with shocking closeness. His documentary „ Bruno S- Estrangement is death“, about Bruno S., backyard musician, painter and main actor in Werner Herzog’s films „The enigma of Kaspar Hauser““ and „Stroszek“ was shown 2003 at the Berlinale 2003 and other film festivals all over the world. In his first crime novel “Kein schlichter Abgang“ published in 2003 ( MirandA Verlag, Bremen) you can once again follow Miron Zownir protagonists into a vicious and hostile cosmos, which is to be discovered as an absurd summation of everyday- life-insanity. Meanwhile he is working as a photographer, script author, author of crime novels, director and once in a while as a lecturer at the Deutsche Film- und Fernsehakademie in Berlin.
