© Lothar Wolleh Estate, Berlin | | | | | | In 1967, Lothar Wolleh visited the Belgian surrealist René Magritte a few months before his death.
With his photographs, Wolleh created an intimate portrait of René Magritte's domestic life and artistic practice. In particular, photographs in which Magritte interacts with his own paintings are of particular importance. Not least because of their enigmatic character, Magritte's paintings became part of our collective memory. Lothar Wolleh's photographs contribute to this collective memory. Magritte died shortly after the opening of the exhibition, which gave these photographs such high status - and also enabled Magritte to have the last word. | | | | | | | | | Lothar Wolleh
