Saint Peter at Saint Peter. The Rome Pictures of Lothar Wolleh Lothar Wolleh Virtually unknown photographs by the Berlin photographer Lothar Wolleh (1930-1979) can be seen as part of the TURM-RAUM-KUNST series. Wolleh, who is known chiefly for his numerous artist portraits of the 1960s/70s, was the official photographer of the second Vatican Council from 1962 until 1965. His picture book “Apostolorum Limina” on the celebrations of the Holy Year was published in 1975. From this set, Kunst-Station Sankt Peter Köln exhibits the atmospheric, often abstract shots, in which Wolleh’s spiritual dimension of an almost mythical veneration of light becomes palpable.
