DEEDS CALENDAR: 20 Jahre Helmut Newton Stiftung – Helmut Newton Stiftung im Museum für Fotografie | until 16.02.2025
The Helmut Newton Foundation is celebrating its 20th anniversary in June 2024 with the group exhibition “Berlin, Berlin”, which also pays homage to the city of Newton’s birth. In autumn 2003, the photographer decided to transfer parts of his archive to Berlin after establishing the foundation named after him, which was housed in the former Landwehrkasino at Zoologischer Garten station and opened in June 2004. From that station, Helmut Neustädter, as a Jew constantly threatened with deportation, left Berlin in a hurry at the beginning of December 1938 and returned 65 years later as the world-famous photographer Helmut Newton. Since then, the Helmut Newton Foundation, together with the Art Library, has run the historic building under the name “Museum of Photography”.
