Yet Untitled

The Hanover-based traffic planner Bernd F. Kunne has been a dedicated collector of contemporary photography since the middle of the nineties. With respect to content, the photographs range from documentary-type concepts like those of the internationally known "Becherklasse" to the subjective lines of German photography in the wake of Otto Steinert around 1970, to the group around Michael Schmidt from the beginning of the eighties. The collection offers an overview of recent trends in American and European photography. Three essays and an interview with a collector explore the historical development of contemporary photography on both sides of the Atlantic. Extensive work groups by Matthias Hoch, Thomas Ruff, Michael Schmidt or Timm Rautert allow for insights into facets of contemporary artistic photography.
