Gallery Current
For 35 years, Stephan Hann has been concerned with the demise and survival of materials. Long before the appreciative view of people and materials had even reached the consciousness of many. And yet we are still faced with the question of how a new appreciation, a desire, a craving for something seen as worthless can arise.
In 1980 Vladimir Sichov went to France and showed his street photographs to the Paris Match office. The magazine published 44 pages of his photographs with an interview. Publications of 55 pages and a cover in "Stern", four issues of the Italian "Oggi" and 12 pages in the American "Life" magazine followed in May. In the same year he became the most published photographer in the world.
Profile
The old house on the corner of Mommsenstrasse/Bleibtreustrasse, with its turrets, oriels and many details, was not destroyed during the 2nd World War. In the mid-1920s, a certain Menachim Mond wanted to build a hotel there. Today, renowned artists from Arab countries are presented here in the context and dialogue with European artists. For this series of exhibitions, Galerie Mond is collaborating with curator Karin von Roques.
