Bib-Lounge@ SLUB: loungeaffairs #6 Ursinus.Träumer

The Berlin photographer Peter Ursinus (1946-2012) almost fell into oblivion. His life, characterized by disruptions, corresponds to the accidental rescue of his photographic estate, which the Deutsche Fotothek took over into its archive of photographers in 2021. His work was last exhibited in Berlin in the 1970s. After 50 years, the exhibition is now bringing Peter Ursinus' photography back into the public eye. Until July 25, 2025, some of his motifs, which demonstrate the spectrum of his work between street photography and the graphic and creative penetration of reality, can be seen as part of the loungeaffairs series in the Bib-Lounge cafeteria.
