August Sander Cycle Part 5 – Classes and Professions

“Lights, camera, action!” for August Sander
A special movie screening on June 18th will inaugurate the fourth exhibition of the August Sander Cycle 2014 at FEROZ Gallery in Bonn.
2014 is a year dedicated to August Sander. For everyone interested in his work, it is also a great opportunity to learn more about the photographer’s personality. Above all, the conversations with his descendants, such as his great-grandson and gallerist Julian Sander, shine a light on the character of the man behind the camera. The documentary August Sander: Menschen des 20. Jahrhunderts, to be presented on the occasion of the August Sander Cycle, offers a comprehensive look on the artist’s life and work. Julian Sander is pleased to invite you all to the opening and movie screening on July 18th at FEROZ Gallery in Bonn. With every exhibition, the complete work of People of the 20th Century is assembled in a year-round cycle presented by FEROZ Gallery.

In 18 subgroups, the diverse character of German society in the early 20th Century is represented in the portraits of students, scientists and actors, as well as soldiers, Nazis and aristocrats.
