Götz Diergarten’s documentary approach to photography immediately invites us to compare and contrast. Where have you seen these beach huts before?

Diergarten made this series of nine colourful beach huts in Tankerton, a suburb of the old seaside town of Whitstable in England. Diergarten photographed them all in the same way: straight from the front and with a small strip of grass in the foreground. He photographed similar series in Belgium, France and the Netherlands.
