Between 1943 And 1967 Weinberger Published Photos Of Male Workers, Sportsmen And Bikers In The Gay Magazine Der Kreis Under The Pseudonym Of Jim. In The Late 50S And Early 60S He Concentrated On Swiss Rock N Roll Youth, Whom He Photographed With Both Tenderness And A Hint Of Irony. Weinberger Placed Little Emphasis On Exhibiting His Work; His First Comprehensive Show Took Place Only In 2000, Six Years Before His Death.
