Konrad Rufus Müller Licht Gestalten Fotografien von 1960 bis 2010
Konrad Rufus Müller is one of the best known portrait photographers of the postwar period, his life's work encompassing over 2,800 images. A selection of 400 of the best is now presented in this catalogue. Müller's style is very individual: he works exclusively in black-and-white, eschewing artificial light, his only tool a Rolleiflex camera from 1975. He is not accompanied by a crew of assistants and stylists, and his paper prints are created in a small darkroom, making each photograph a unique original. This volume gathers together the high points of his career in encyclopedic fashion: next to a complete series of German chancellors are statesmen and politicians such as Joschka Fischer, Bruno Kreisky, Mikhail Gorbachev, Bill Clinton, Vladimir Putin, François Mitterrand and Anwar el-Sadat; artists including Sergiu Celibidache and Friedrich Dürrenmatt; and the entertainers Thomas Gottschalk and Harald Schmidt. Also included are landscape portraits, cityscapes, still lifes, children's portrait series, young concert visitors, the portrait of a Romanian "wolfman," peasants, craftsmen, big-city denizens. Müller's photographs have been featured in Europe's foremost magazines.
