Publisher's Synopsis
Born in Germany in 1926, F.C. Gundlach is best known for his iconic fashion photography during the postwar period, but he is also a passionate art collector who created a remarkable compendium of photographs and multimedia art by famous contemporary artists. Accompanying an exhibition of Gundlach's collection at the Contemporary Fine Arts gallery in Berlin, this catalogue offers the first opportunity to reconstruct the view of photography as a medium in juxtaposition with these artists' paintings and sculptures.
