Esmée Fairburn Evening Lecture

Ute Eskildsen: The History of the Krupp company archive

In this talk, Professor Ute Eskildsen, former Director and Head of Photography at Museum Folkwang, Essen, will explore the documentary aspects of the Krupp archive and trace how certain images were used and distributed.

Never are such photographs simple documents of industrial interests alone and close inspection reveals other values and investments in the photograph as cultural expression often during times of traumatic moments in history.
