Buch, Hardcover, Mit Karambolage, seinem fotografischen Tagebuch zu den zahlreichen Verkehrsunfällen, die seinen Berufsalltag im Schweizer Kanton Nidwalden fast ein halbes Jahrhundert lang begleitet haben, ist der Polizist und Fotograf Arnold Odermatt in seinem Ruhestand berühmt geworden. Das Thema von Im Dienst war auf ein ganz bestimmtes Publikum ausgerichtet und könnte etwa gelautet haben: 'Wir sind doch eine ganz tolle Truppe!' Das kleine Polizeikorps in den Gemeinden von Nidwalden hatte Nachwuchssorgen, die Dorfjugend sah ihre Zukunft nicht in Uniform und auf Streife. Arnold Odermatt belehrte sie mit seiner Kamera eines besseren. Er hat seine Kollegen zum Friseur geschickt und dann die Abenteuer ihres Berufsalltags, die Fahrzeuge mit Blaulicht und die Macht der Amtswaffen arrangiert und inszeniert. So entstand Werbung im besten Sinne, die stolz zeigt, wer man ist und was man hat. Im Dienst ist ein eindrückliches Dokument einer untergegangenen Zeit, die dennoch vertraut erscheint. Der Band enthält Bilder in fernen Farben, die uns aus der Vergangenheit grüßen wie die Gerüche unserer Kindheit. Leinen, [PU: Steidl Verlag], Seiten: 336, Steidl Verlag, 2013<
