August Sander

August Sander (1876-1964) was a photographer best known for his numerous portraits of German people in the Weimar period. His major project, aiming at presenting Menschen des 20. Jahrhunderts (People of the 20th Century) through portraits of people of all classes and occupations, had a decisive impact on subsequent photography. This show presents 60 pieces included in his book Antlitz der Zeit (Face of Our Time, 1929).
