biography

He studied architecture in Weimar and worked for several years as an architect under Hermann Henselmann . He then worked as a freelance set designer, action artist, Super 8 filmmaker and photographer. In GDR literature , Hahnemann is considered "one of the first to write the gay experience in the country's literature".

Both in the GDR and after the fall of the Wall , Hahnemann felt that he belonged to the artistic "underground". Before 1989 he published almost exclusively in underground magazines such as "Schaden" and the Ariadnefabrik edited by Andreas Koziol and Rainer Schedlinski . After 1989 he received a number of scholarships from the Senate of Berlin, the Akademie Schloss Solitude Stuttgart, the Alfred Döblin scholarship from the Berlin Academy of the Arts and that of the Villa Massimo in Rome.

He was buried in the Dorotheenstädtischer Friedhof in Berlin. His artistic estate was acquired by the Berlin Academy of the Arts. The material archive documents the literary and art scene that developed in the GDR in the 1980s.
