Coinciding with 99 Photographs, a text volume is published that traces the Fotostiftung' s winding path from its founding to the present. What has become of the vision of a small group of photography enthusiasts who recognized the importance of photography at an early stage and created a first place of preservation and mediation in Switzerland? The history of the Fotostiftung is also the story of the rapid transformation of a medium that plays a central role in communication in our visual age. From reportage to artwork, from trivial to meaningful images, from snapshots to arranged scenes: the Foundation' s long-time director and curator, Peter Pfrunder, combines the history of an institution' s development with the cultural history of the dazzling medium and complements it with reflections on visual memory and the value of archives.
Founded in 1971 by a group of photography fans, the Fotostiftung Schweiz has become one of the most important advocates for the medium of photography. An exciting insight into the history of Swiss photography.
