Seiichi Furuya's Dresden photographs from 1984/85 are a most unlikely document - a view of daily life in the latter days of the GDR recorded by a Japanese photographer, who had been a major player in the photography scene in Austria since the beginning of the 1980s. His pictures are private - a young family in an intimate setting, their deep-seated anxieties and moments of happiness - and it is more in passing that he records everyday life and society. His view from the outside, a stranger's way of seeing things, has no equivalent in the art photography of the GDR.
