FRITZ HENLE @ THROCKMORTON FINE ART


“FRITZ HENLE Photographs”
April 27 – June 24, 2017

“According to Spencer Throckmorton, “photo-historian Helmut Gernsheim called FRITZ HENLE ‘the last classic freelance photographer.’ He was one of those fortunate individuals for whom the tumultuous years before and after World War II generated an ability for him to constantly reimagine and retool his life and work. His German Father, a surgeon, had a talent as an amateur photographer and encouraged young Fritz, who graduated from the Bavarian State Institute for Photography in 1930. Then his work for American art historian Clarence Kennedy funded a series of explorations that took him to Italy, the Mediterranean, Greece, North Africa and the Middle East for three years. He photographed people in urban and rural settings, at work, at study, and at play. ”
