Andreas Müller-Pohle is a Berlin-based media artist and publisher. He studied economics and communication at the Universities of Hannover and Gottingen and, in 1979, founded European Photography, an independent art magazine for contemporary photography and new media. His first artistic projects from the late 1970s focused on issues of photographic perception, later on photo recycling, and now also incorporate video. In the mid-1990s he began exploring the use of digital, genetic, and political codes. In his most recent works he addresses the subject of water with extensive portraits of the Danube River and the megalopolis of Hong Kong. Müller-Pohle’s works have been widely published and exhibited and are included in numerous private and museum collections worldwide. As a publisher, Müller-Pohle has edited major works by media philosopher Vilém Flusser, available today in the ten-volume Edition Flusser and including the seminal Philosophy of Photography, which has been translated into over 20 languages. Müller-Pohle was awarded the European Photography Prizeof the Reind M. De Vries Foundation in 2001. He is the author of numerous texts on photo theory, among others on ‘Visualism’, and has been a visiting professor and lecturer at the Higher Institute of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Belgium, among other institutions. His most recent project, Hong Kong Waters, was published by Kehrer Verlag and Asia One Books.
