Photographs 1958 until today - Guido Mangold
This exhibition presents approximately 80 images by Munich resident Guido Mangold, one of Germany’s most renowned post-1945 landscape and magazine photographers. After initially training as a pastry chef, Mangold studied photography from 1957-59 under Otto Steinert at Werkkunstschule Saarbrücken and Folkwang Schule Essen. He then went on to perform assignments for the magazines and periodicals Quick, twen, Jasmin and GEO. The exhibits include earlier industrial landscapes as well as portraits of American and German artists, e.g., George Segal, Joseph Beuys and Georg Baselitz. Landscape compositions from his numerous travels throughout Europe, Asia and America complete the course.
