On the book Paris:
Limited edition of 100.
Paris, ils t'aiment. Paris, they love you. The city considers itself "the capital of photography" - and with good reason, for it has captivated countless photographers. René Groebli is one of them. His personal impressions of a long gone, post-war metropolis are inimitable.
Many of the pictures in this publication show signs of his unmistakable signature: blurred movement, multiple exposures, the play of light and silhouettes. They testify to his unerring eye for situations, structures and composition and to his idiosyncratic, unconventional perspective, which is underscored by combining photographs from 1949 with a select few from 1979.

On the book London:
Second limited edition of 250
A few days before christmas 1949, the young Swiss photographer René Groebli arrived at Victoria station in fog-bound, bombed-out London. For two weeks he wandered aimlessly around the city with his rolleiflex camera. The result is compiled in this edition with high-quality tri-tone offset printed images.
