The Old Mills Never Die book set curated by Gerhard Steidl celebrates the past, present, and future of one of the world’s most remarkable and universal footwear brands on the occasion of its 250th anniversary in the shoemaking trade. The work consists of four volumes that each reflect a different aspect of the BIRKENSTOCK universe, complemented by the Book of BIRKENSTOCK. In Walk This Way, Henry Leutwyler documents lesser known treasures in the BIRKENSTOCK archive, and in Factories, Werner Bartsch presents some of the people and places that shape BIRKENSTOCK today: more than 6,000 employees who combine cutting-edge production technology with decades of handcrafting tradition. In Golborne Road, Juergen Teller uses his typically subversive and ironic style to capture BIRKENSTOCK as the ultimate fashion item. And finally, Graphic Designer examines the groundbreaking graphic talent and typological approach of Carl Birkenstock (1900–1982). Old Mills Never Die is the first work to comprehensively reflect the history as well as importance both culturally and historically of BIRKENSTOCK, complementing this with new artistic perspectives.
