Birgit Kleber – Photographers (signed)

KEHRER 2023

The renowned portrait photographer Birgit Kleber has been working on this project for thirty years, portraying her fellow photographers in impressive black-and-white photographs. This has resulted in a body of work of more than one hundred images, of which Matthias Harder, Director of the Helmut Newton Foundation, writes that there is »no comparable systematic group of works like Photographers.« Among those portrayed are Sophie Calle, Nan Goldin, Thomas Höpker, Peter Lindbergh, Richard Mosse, Sebastião Salgado, Cindy Sherman, and Wolfgang Tillmanns. Birgit Kleber lives in Berlin. Her photographs are in numerous collections and have been shown in over thirty solo exhibitions, including those at the Helmut Newton Foundation / Museum of Photography and the Haus am Kleistpark, Berlin. Kleber has received a number of fellowships, including a travel scholarship from the Berlin Senate for Moscow.
