Auction 05 June 2024 OstLicht Photo Auction Spring 2024 - Vienna

Bid on the lot list OstLicht Photo Auction : 05 June 2024 - <p>The photo auction will start on Wednesday, 5 June 2024 at 6 p.m. CET following the camera auction. As in the two previous auctions from last year, part of the auction consists of the large-format prints from the famous Magnum travelling exhibition “In Our Time”, which was shown in Japan around 1990. The Magnum greats Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Capa, Werner Bischof, Ernst Haas, Inge Morath, Eliott Erwitt, Bruce Davidson, René Burri, Josef Koudelka, and Sebastião Salgado are represented with icons of contemporary history.</p><p>“The photo auction is primarily dedicated to classic black-and-white and vintage photography because – unlike in some short-term hyped trends – we see the greatest long-term value in this art segment,” says Peter Coeln. Among the classics from the 19th and early 20th centuries are international positions by Edward Steichen, Anton Josef Trčka, Edward Sheriff Curtis, August Sander, André Kertész, Paul Strand, Alfred Eisenstaedt, and Harold Edgerton.</p><p>The prominent Austrian women photographers of the interwar period are represented with important works by Madame d&#39;Dora, Atelier Manassé, Trude Fleischmann, and Dora Horovitz. Apart from the Magnum photographs, works from 1950 onwards by Weegee, Eikō Hosoe, Günter Brus, Will McBride, Arno Rafael Minkkinen, Joel Meyerowitz, Luigi Ghirri, and Ulay can be purchased at the auction.</p> OstLicht Gallery - Vienna
