Discovering Lisel Haas Curator's Talk realiza-se a 10 de outubro de 2026, Library of Birmingham, em Birmingham.
Discovering Lisel Haas An exhibition exploring the life, work, and legacy of a Birmingham photographer. 27th July - 12th December, Library of Birmingham Lisel Haas (1898 - 1989) was a German-Jewish photographer whose professional career spanned over 6 decades. She worked in close collaboration with her partner, Grete Bermbach (1899 - 1979). Having run a successful photography business together in their home town of Mönchengladbach, Lisel and Grete fled Nazi persecution and arrived in Birmingham shortly before the war. Despite initial hostility and difficulties, they were eventually able to set up their photography studio again and rebuild their strong career. The Library of Birmingham is home to the Lisel Haas archive, a collection of nearly 260 boxes of material that have remained uncatalogued and largely untouched, until now. This exhibition draws out highlights from the archive in order to tell Lisel and Grete’s story. Contemporary artists have also been invited to respond to the archive and to Lisel and Grete’s story; their responses are on display throughout the exhibition. Curator's Talk This talk will be led by curator of the exhibition, Jen Wilbur . Jen is a creative producer and curator working in arts and heritage in Birmingham and the Black Country.
