German artist Ludwig Schönherr (also known as Peter Schönherr and Ludwig Winterhalter) began making photographs and paintings in the late 1950s. In the mid-1960s, his interest in the visual arts shifted to film. Schönherr’s work in film and photography was often directed at lending structure and order to the ubiquity of television images in the contemporary world. Despite working with and on such key artists of the late 20th century as Dieter Roth, Jack Smith, Otto Mühl and Nam June Paik, Schönherr refused to present his work in public for most of his life and is therefore an almost completely unknown figure. This inaugural bilingual publication on the artist’s work includes essays by Shai Heredia and Marc Siegel, a selection of texts by Schönherr himself and numerous color and black and white reproductions, including excerpts from the artist’s notebooks.

Professor of Film Studies at Gutenberg University Mainz.
