Albert Renger-Patzsch Biography

(b Wurzburg, 22 June 1897; d Wamel, 27 Sept 1966). German photographer. He began taking photographs as a schoolboy. He was influenced by his father, an enthusiastic amateur. After active service in World War I, he studied chemistry (1919–21) in Dresden but did not complete his degree. In 1922 he became the director of the picture archive of the Folkwang-Auriga publishing house in Hagen, where, among other things, he provided much of the pictorial material for the books on plants by the owner of the press, Ernst Fuhrmann (e.g. Das Photographieren von Blüten , 1924; see PHOTOGRAPHY, fig. 22). When Renger-Patzsch’s first book of photographs, Das Chorgestühl von Kappenberg (1925), appeared, he left the press and opened a studio in Bad Harzburg.
