Arrested by "The Gestapo" twice..!!!
We have never seen such dark times.
Amazing his wife survived.
I hope his photos will carry his torch for him..............

I met Trude Guermonprez at San Francisco State and again at Mendocino Art Center....deep Bauhaus roots. That factor was more important than his photography, I think.
