The new exhibition in the Photobastei presents the Zurich artist Karlheinz Weinberger, alias Jim, as he has never been seen before: as a human being, as a Zurich citizen and as a lover of male sensuality. The exhibition goes far beyond the portraits of the "Halbstarke", with whom he became world-famous and inscribed himself in our collective and visual memory.

Weinberger's pictures almost exclusively show people - more men than women. At first glance, most of Weinberger's favourite subjects fall out of the bourgeois frame of their time. Karlheinz Weinberger's best-known pictures are portraits of the "Halbstarke". However, his work by far does not only include these portraits in their spectacular presentation, which also plays an equally decisive role in the later photographs of rockers and tattooed people. For the first time, the exhibition in Zurich shows his entire oeuvre, including key works from all periods as well as unpublished parts of his work that have a strong connection to Zurich.
