Hugo Jaeggi’s (1936-2018) photographs largely withdraw from a comparative evaluation. Distinctive are his dreams of visual force. They allow a glimpse of the psyche that experiences the family relations and the chasms his existence and endures them over and over again. Unfiltered and honest he keeps questioning his work. It is not beautiful images he is after, as he says, but the good ones, those that tell something outrageous. Undoubtedly he is a master of portrait photography. The magic in the look of the depicted in his portraits is highly capturing and hard to let go of.
