After the fall of the Berlin Wall, she co-founded the self-administered photographer's agency OSTKREUZ, and worked for leading German as well as international magazines such as GEO, Die Zeit, Stern or New York Times Magazine. The catalogue accompanying the exhibition at Berlinische Galerie approaches the unique visual universe of one of Germany's most famous photographers on several narrative levels. It includes more than 200 photographs from the museum's own collection as well as from the photographer's estate, and shows selected images from her early work for the first time.SIBYLLE BERGEMANN (1941-2010) started her career in photography in 1966.
