Pink Funhouse; U2 360̊, New Jersey 2011; Bon Jovi, Lost Highway SAE: That’s why you chose the picture for the cover of your book of photogra- phy “Stage Design Emotions”. RL: Exactly. In 1993 I started to produce illustrated books and programmes for art- ists. To date I have made 17 books in total. For me, books are the best medium to present pictures in an enduring, significant way. In “Stage Design Emotions”, I re- corded the most lavish productions which I have documented during the past three years in detailed pictures. This gives the observer a high quality insight into stages and shows him what he would never or rarely get to see otherwise. SAE: Very impressive, we are very excited to see which projects you will be in- volved with in the future and wish you all the best with your work. ■ Robbie Williams 2003 Stage Design Emototions: More than a collection of Ralph’s best photographs 088088 People & Business // Ralph Larmann
