The F.C. Gundlach Foundation for Photography

Promoting photography as a cultural asset is the central purpose of the F.C. Gundlach Foundation. Its activities include exhibitions, publications and other projects, as well as scientific research in the field of photography.

With the F.C. Gundlach Collection, the photographic estate of F.C. Gundlach and the image archives of other important photographers, the foundation has an extensive collection of photographic works and materials, which it presents and promotes to the public around the world. This is because "the importance of photography as the basis of modern communication, as a medium of documentation and, in particular, as a medium of art is constantly increasing in our visually oriented society. Photography is one of the most essential and formative achievements of industrial and post-industrial society." (F.C. Gundlach)
