© Lothar Wolleh Estate, Berlin für Günther Uecker, VG-Bild-Kunst, Bonn, 2022 | | | | | | | Lothar Wolleh (1930-1979) and Günther Uecker (1930) met in Düsseldorf in the mid-1960s. Early on, their friendship developed into an intensive artistic exchange. Photographer Wolleh portrayed Günther Uecker several dozen times, and documented some of his performances. Moreover, their multiform collaborative projects are of special significance. | | | | | |  | | | Lothar Wolleh: untitled, Düsseldorf, 1970, 38 x 38 cm

On display are Lothar Wolleh’s photography, both portraits and object-photography, and a jointly conceived artist’s book, dubbed "Das Nagelbuch" (1970-71).
Centrepiece of the presentation is the monumental "Homage a Leonardo". An intervention by Günther Uecker from 1973 – with his signature material, the nail – based on a portrait by Lothar Wolleh. "Im Focus – Günther Uecker" bears witness to a true fusion of media and artistic views. | | | | | |  | | | Lothar Wolleh: Günther Uecker, Düsseldorf, 1963, 38 x 38 cm
