Ingeborg Hoppe

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ingeborg Hoppe (born March 1, 1920 in Kassel , † October 4, 1983 in Stuttgart ) was a German fashion photographer .

Life

Ingeborg Hoppe was the second daughter of the engineer and board member at Daimler-Benz Dr. Ing. Otto Hoppe and his wife Gretel, b. Feibusch. She first attended the Königin-Charlotte-Gymnasium in Stuttgart, which she left with the secondary school leaving certificate because she was harassed as a half-Jewish woman. From November 1937 she attended the Württemberg State School of Applied Arts , where she learned commercial graphics , before completing training at the Bavarian State Institute for Photography in Munich from 1938 to 1940 . She finished this training as a journeyman because a master class was not established due to the effects of the war. She was a student of the photographer Hanna Seewald . From 1941 to 1944 she was a staff photographer Urs long-short and was from this persecution by the Nazis protected. After the studio was destroyed by the National Socialists, the photographers took themselves to safety in Nördlingen , where they stayed until the end of the war.

After the end of the Second World War , Hoppe opened his own photo studio in Stuttgart. It was initially located in Heidehofstrasse. In 1947 Hoppe passed the master craftsman examination in Stuttgart. In 1950 the company moved to Payerstrasse.

Among other things, she worked as a journalist for various newspapers, took on the documentation of war damage in Stuttgart, Ulm and Augsburg on their behalf, and shot advertising for Junghans and Mercedes-Benz. However, her specialty soon became fashion photography, and she was able to attract numerous clients such as Daimler-Benz , Junghans , Burda , Bleyle , Schachenmayr and Benger Ribana. Magazines such as the Film Revue , the Schwäbische Illustrierte and the Funk-Illustrierte published Hoppes' pictures.

In 1948 Hoppe married the lawyer Wolfgang Mangold, with whom she had two children. She closed the studio in the 1950s for family reasons.

The fashion photographer FC Gundlach was assistant to Ingeborg Hoppe in Stuttgart from September 16, 1949 to December 31, 1950.

Late work

From 1976 she devoted herself to the photographic documentation of the megalithic culture in Sardinia and here mainly the grave caves of the genus Domus de Janas . Her photographic work aroused the interest of the University of Sassari (Sardinia). This led to a collaboration with the Sardinian archaeologist Giuseppa Tanda, for whose book L'Arte delle Domus de Janas she provided the photos. She died in 1983 and was unable to witness the publication in 1985.

estate

Hoppe's archive was initially looked after by her family. The archive of her fashion photos has been housed in the photography collection of the Munich City Museum since 2006 .

In addition, the Deutsche Fotothek owns over 180 black and white photos of Hoppe. It is a question of landscape as well as architecture and monuments that were taken on study trips to Italy, France and Spain. Other parts of her estate are still in the family's possession and in the FC Gundlach collection in Hamburg .
