Cocktail Prolongé
As one of the most influential German fashion photographers from the 1950s to the 1980s, F.C. Gundlach decisively shaped the aesthetic stylization of the female body. As a private collector, however, his passion was devoted to more provocative, ambiguous, and profound forms of corporeality. Extravagance and queerness are expressed in these works just as much as vulnerability and nonconformity. Drawing on around 300 works from the F.C. Gundlach Collection, the exhibition »Cocktail Prolongé« explores the diverse ways in which corporeality can be staged — always with an eye to how the body becomes a medium for the portrayal of roles, fantasies, and desires, as well as for articulating critical demands.
