Photos are part of the condition description. Angelika Platen (born 1942) is among the most important German female photographers in the field of artist portrait photography. Since the late 1960s she has documented with precision and a fine sense the faces and personalities of the international art scene – from emerging talents to world-renowned icons. Her photographs show artists not only as public figures but also as people in concentrated, often intimate moments. Among her most famous portraits are images of Joseph Beuys, Sigmar Polke, Marina Abramović, Georg Baselitz, Neo Rauch, Ai Weiwei, Wolfgang Tillmans and many others. Platen prefers working in black and white and relies on natural lighting as well as authentic settings – often in the studio, while at work or in personal situations. Her work has been exhibited in numerous museums and institutions, including the Martin-Gropius-Bau Berlin, the Hamburger Kunsthalle and the ZKM Karlsruhe.
