Koehli darius (21 Ergebnisse)

Hardback. Zustand: New. "Mad Dog" Vachon, "Tarzan Tyler", Masao "Rusher" Kimura - the ring names of the professional wrestlers who grappled for glory in the AWA (American Wrestling Association) were as evocative as they were hair-raising. And their bouts in the ring were spectacular extravaganzas with mass public appeal. It's the Summer of 1969 and nine-year-old Darius Koehli has just left Zurich for a nine-month sojourn in the US with his father. He suddenly finds himself in a whole new world. And why the heck does it have to be Omaha, Nebraska, of all places? Fortunately, he soon makes friends with Carl, the neighbors' son. They take him along to the hottest spot in town, the Civic Auditorium, to see some catch wrestling. With his brand-new Kodak Instamatic, Darius begins taking pictures, capturing the ring's heroes before, during and after their bouts. With a remarkable eye for slapstick and physical comedy, and from a pint-sized 9-years-old's perspective, he produces hundreds of snapshots of these humongous hulks. The selection featured in this book provides a glimpse of a bygone era in which professional wrestling was just taking off - and blowing away the TV audience. On a visit to Zürich in the summer of 2019, Darius Koehli comes across the photo album he'd put together 50 years ago. Memories from Omaha rise up again, magical names emerge from a distant past, evoking stuffy auditoriums and brash, boisterous announcers, rowdy fans cheering and booing the contenders, the sweat and blood of battle-hardened bodies and mysterious masked accomplices, as well as moments of choreographed, sometimes even graceful combats.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - «Mad Dog» Vachon, «Tarzan Tyler» oder Masao «Rusher» Kimura - so wohlklingend wie furchteinflössend lauteten die Namen der Wrestler, die regelmässig gegeneinander an AWA-Wettkämpfen (American Wrestling Association) antraten, um sich in spektakulären Kämpfen publikumswirksam zu prügeln. Es ist Sommer 1969, der 9-jährige Darius Koehli verlässt Zürich und begleitet seinen Vater für einen neunmonatigen Aufenthalt in die USA. Plötzlich findet er sich in einer ihm völlig fremden Umgebung wieder. Und warum zum Geier muss es ausgerechnet Omaha, Nebraska sein Glücklicherweise freundet er sich schnell mit Carl an, dem Sohn der Nachbarn. Diese nehmen ihn zum angesagtesten Ort der Stadt mit, ins Civic Auditorium, um Wrestling-Kämpfe zu sehen. Mit seiner nigelnagelneuen Kodak Instamatic beginnt Darius zu fotografieren, hält die Helden des Rings vor, während und nach den Kämpfen fest. Mit einem bemerkenswerten Blick für Situationskomik und aus der Perspektive des 9-Jährigen entstehen hunderte von Bildern, deren fürs Buch getroffene Auswahl einen Einblick in eine längst vergangene Epoche gewährt, als das professionelle Wrestling gerade am Durchstarten war und im Fernsehen ausgestrahlt wurde. Im Sommer 2019 stösst Koehli anlässlich eines Besuches in Zürich auf das Album, das 50 Jahre zuvor entstanden war. Erinnerungen aus Omaha steigen wieder hoch, magische Namen tauchen aus der Vergangenheit auf. Sie erzählen von vollen Arenen und reisserischen Ansagern, vom begeisterten Publikum, das lautstark die Wrestler anfeuert, von Schweiss und Blut, von mysteriösen maskierten Komplizen, von gestählten Körpern und halten Momente von choreografierten, ja anmutigen Begegnungen fest.…
