Roger Melis in letters and documents
Reading and Archive Presentation
The portraits by Roger Melis (1940–2009) are legendary. Like few others, the Berlin photographer gave artists in the East and West an unmistakable face from the early 1960s onward. As part of the “Artist Portraits” exhibition at Galerie Pankow (4 Sep – 27 Oct), the Roger Melis Archive taken over by the Akademie der Künste will be presented with a reading.
