Bleicke Bleicken: Die Seele Sylts

In the organizer's words:

From February 16, 2025, the Kunsthalle der KulturBäckerei will be showing the fascinating photographs of Bleicke Bleicken, one of Sylt's most important chroniclers. The exhibition provides insights into the life and landscape of the island in the 1930s to 1950s and shows how Bleicken captured the originality and special atmosphere of his homeland with his camera. His works, taken with a Rollei medium-format camera, document not only the untouched nature and the interplay of light and shadow, but also the everyday life of the inhabitants and the arrival of the first bathers.

Bleicken's photographs are more than documentation - they capture the soul of the island and make its unique beauty tangible.

Thanks to loans from the Jürgen Joost Collection, Bleicken's estate, managed by Anke Bleicken, and the Sölring Museums, the exhibition offers a comprehensive look at the work of this extraordinary photographer.
