In 2009, Stefan Martin handed over photographic and film material for possible use in the museum as part of preparations for an exhibition on the subject of 1989 / 1990 in Dresden. Due to his death shortly afterwards, the material remained unaccounted for in the museum.
The material in question is as follows:
- 2 DVDs with films: 1. Zu Tisch. The best pictures of a film HERE, three films by Olaf Böhme & Stefan Martin; 2. video studio Dresden / Martin / Böhme
- 52 black and white photographs, hand prints, Dresden 1985 to 1991
- 2 folders with negative archive
- 15 photo bags with 35mm negatives, Dresden 1985 to 1991
This collection is largely unprocessed, a first partial inspection was carried out with family members.
The tasks during the internship:
- Creating an inventory overview
- Rough recording of the remaining material in the Museum + database (under supervision)
- Researching the motifs/persons, possibly in dialogue with family members
- Handing over material not relevant to the collection to surviving relatives
- Relocation suitable for storage
- Packing according to museum standards
