The exhibition Arno Fischer: Eine Reise (Arno Fischer: A Journey)<\/i> will offer insight into Arno Fischer\u2019s photographic practice and the various roles he played\u2014photographer, mediator, and teacher\u2014during his career. With over one hundred black-and-white and colour photographs taken between the early 1940s and late 2000s, some of which are being shown for the first time at Schloss Kummerow, the exhibition will highlight the important place Fischer holds in the history of German photography.<\/p>\n

Arno Fischer (1927\u20132011) spent his career working across photographic genres, documenting fashion models on the streets of Eastern European cities and ordinary citizens and their everyday lives in cities in the Eastern Bloc, Equatorial Guinea, India, and the United States. When not traversing the streets with his camera in hand, Fischer was exchanging ideas with members of DIREKT, a group that formed around him in East Berlin in 1965 and that would contribute to the diversification of East Germany\u2019s visual culture in the 1970s and 1980s. He also hosted artist gatherings with his wife, photographer Sibylle Bergemann, in their apartment on the Schiffbauerdamm in East Berlin. These get-togethers included their circle of friends, Fischer\u2019s students, and international photographers Robert Frank, Henri Cartier-Bresson, and Ren\u00e9 Burri, among others, who had been invited by the Centre Culturel Fran\u00e7ais and the Amerika-Haus to Berlin.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″][vc_column_text]Fischer also mentored students, first at the Hochschule f\u00fcr Grafik und Buchkunst Leipzig and later, after the fall of the Berlin Wall, at the Ostkreuzschule f\u00fcr Fotografie und Gestaltung, and photographed his garden with a Polaroid camera, an endeavour that took him three decades.<\/p>\n

Accompanied by an exhibition catalogue with over 70 illustrations, Arno Fischer: Eine Reise will place a spotlight on one of the most important German photographers of the 20th century and take visitors on a journey across photographic genres, continents, and decades.<\/p>\n
