Web Work #8 Werner Bischof



Werner Adalbert Bischof was born April 26, 1916 in Zurich, Switzerland and died in a car accident in Peru May 16, 1954. Bischof worked as an advertising and fashion photographer for several year and in 1942 began working for Zurich magazine.



I find Bischof's photo's intreging and peaceful. They are simple but yet seem to tell a story. It is unfortunate that he died so young. With the help of his son his images will not be forgotten.


Please take the time to admire Werner Bischof'f images in the video below.
