The well-known photographer Günter Rössler would have been 100 years old this year - to mark the occasion, the Kunsthaus Apolda Avantgarde is showing photographs by the artist, who died on New Year's Eve 2012. The exhibition was curated by Kirsten Schlegel, Rössler's widow and executor of his estate. She once posed for her future husband herself. On 29 January and 29 April, Schlegel will personally guide visitors through the exhibition as part of the accompanying program.
Around 130 black and white photographs will be shown from 18 January to 3 May under the title "Günter Rössler - Fashion and Nude Photography". The photographs date back six decades and, according to the Kunsthaus, are intended to provide an overview of the work of one of the most important German photographers of the second half of the 20th century.
