Text by Michel Frizot, Roland Krischke, Angela Lammert, Benjamin Rux.
Trained as a musician and opera singer, Appelt uses black-and-white photography to create lyrical, theatrical compositions of the self versus nature
Since the 1960s, Berlin-born artist Dieter Appelt (born 1935) has traced the losses of modern society through his camera lens. He discovered photography as a means of reconnecting with nature, mythology and mortality. Appelt incorporates his own body into the images with a poetic approach.
