“If photographers are responsible for creating or reflecting an image of women in society, then I must say, there is only one way for the future, and this is to define women as strong and independent. This should be the responsibility of photographers today: to free women, and finally everyone, from the terror of youth and perfection.” IfsWayShouldTodayStrongWomenResponsibilityYouthCreatingPhotographyPerfectionResponsibleIndependentPhotographerTerrorOne WayStrong WomenReflectingIndependent WomenWomen In Society Author:Peter Lindbergh
“I don't collect art at all. I'm fascinated by art. I receive a lot of presents. My house is full of things, but I am not a collector; it's just that people I work for, and friends, give me a lot of things. There are pictures all over the walls, sculptures, mobiles and paintings. I am embarrassed because I wonder what I should do with them.” PeopleGivingShouldArtHouseWonderPaintingWallGive MeFascinatedEmbarrassedSculptureCollectors Author:Peter Lindbergh
“A photographer is a photographer and an artist is an artist. I don't believe in labels or titles. Why should a painter or sculptor who has probably never challenged the rules be an artist just because his title and an art school education automatically make him one.” ShouldBelieveArtSchoolArtistDon't BelievePhotographerPainterLabelsTitlesSculptorsArt SchoolSchool Education Author:Peter Lindbergh

Heartless retouching should not be the chosen tool to represent women in the beginning of this century.” ShouldYearsFeelingsBigsTodayTakenCenturyToolsChosenDefinedHeartlessRetouching Author:Peter Lindbergh
