Herbert List The magic Eye Bucerius Kunst Forum

Herbert List. The magic Eye: Exhibition Catalog

For the exhibition catalogue of »Herbert List. Das Magische Auge« at Bucerius Kunst Forum in Hamburg together with Peer-Olaf Richter (Head of Herbert List Estate) we conducted a research looking at the notebooks, calenders and albums of the Herbert List Archive to trace the travels, encounters, friendships, relationships and networks of Herbert List. These new insights fed into a revised and expanded chronology of the life of Herbert List.

The exhibition Herbert List. The Magic Eye was created in close collaboration with the Herbert List Estate in Hamburg and the Munich City Museum.
