WORLD STARS FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF A HAMBURG STAR PHOTOGRAPHER
Showing photos by Jochen Blume together: Gallery owner Kirsten Roschlaub and lawyer Stephan Grulert, who was friends with Blume for a long time and now takes care of his photographic legacy.
Jochen Blume (February 28, 1925 - April 4, 2018), the renowned Fuhlsbüttel photographer, pictured at the end of 2017 during an interview with editor-in-chief Kai Wehl.
Alain Delon, Romy Schneider, John F. Kennedy, Willy Brandt, and Sophia Loren—just a few of the personalities that Jochen Blume, who died in 2018 at the age of 93, perfectly captured on paper. Many of his photographs became iconic, as he was one of the best in his field.
Nevertheless, he lived a secluded and unrecognized life in Fuhlsbüttel in recent years, in a beautiful house filled with his paintings. Some of his most important works can be seen until the end of August in Harvestehude, in the exhibition "The Perfect Moment".
