Der Fotograf Paul Wolff
Architectural photography constitutes a focal point in the work of Paul Wolff. Wolff also documented the everyday life of urban and rural populations. His estate with over 6,000 glass plate negatives is now kept by the Saxony State Office for the Preservation of Monuments. The exhibition will feature a selection of these negatives, including a variety of views of the city of Chemnitz. The photographic motifs dating primarily from the period before and after the First World War have hardly been exhibited to the public thus far. They offer exciting and in some cases unusual insights into the historical cityscape.
