From the Estate of Dorothy Bohm (1924-2023). Dorothy Bohm was a British photographer based in London, best known for her deeply humanist and often poetic black and white street photography and, from the early 1980s, her painterly and sophisticated use of colour. She is considered a major figure in the history of British photography.Bohm was born in 1924 in Koenigsberg, East Prussia and moved to England in 1939, as a refugee from Nazi persecution. By the age of 21, she was running her own very successful portrait studio in central Manchester, known as Studio Alexander. In the mid-1950s, she lived for a while both in Paris and New York before settling definitively in north-west London. Her first solo exhibition, People at Peace, took place at the Institute of Contemporary Arts in London in 1969 and the following year saw the publication of her first book, A World Observed. Numerous more books and exhibitions would follow. In 1971 she was closely involved in the founding of The Photographers’ Gallery and served as its Associate Director for the next fifteen years. By the 1990s Dorothy was firmly established as one of the doyennes of British photography, with work in numerous public and private collections, including Tate, the Victoria & Albert Museum, Guildhall Art Gallery and the Musée Carnavalet, Paris. In 2009, she was elected an Honorary Fellow of the UK Royal Photographic Society. Although she stopped taking pictures in 2017, she remained passionately engaged with photography to the very end. Her life and work were recently celebrated by an exhibition at The Photographers’ Gallery, London and the publication of a new monograph, Dorothy Bohm at 100 – A Life in Photography.桃樂西·鮑姆（1924-2023）舊藏。桃樂西·鮑姆著名英國攝影師，以其深刻的人文主義和詩意的黑白街頭攝影以及自1980年代初以來對色彩的繪畫性和精緻運用而聞名。她被認為是英國攝影史上的重要人物。鮑姆於1924年出生於東普魯士科尼斯堡，1939年為躲避納粹迫害而移居英國。21 歲時，她在曼徹斯特經營自己非常成功的肖像工作室Studio Alexander。1950年代中旬，她在巴黎和紐約生活了一段時間，最終定居於倫敦西北部。1969 年，其首展《衆人和平》在倫敦當代藝術學院舉辦，隔年出版了她的第一本攝影集《觀察世界》。隨後有多部書籍及展覽問世。1971年，她密切參與了「攝影師畫廊」的創立，並在接下來的15年擔任畫廊的副總監。到了1990年代，鮑姆已成為英國攝影界的元老之一，其作品被許多公共和私人藏家收藏，其中包括泰特美術館、維多利亞和阿爾伯特博物館、市政廳美術館和巴黎卡納瓦萊博物館。2009年，她被選為英國皇家攝影學會榮譽會員。儘管她在2017年停止了攝影事業，但她始終對攝影充滿熱情。其一生傳奇故事及攝作近期在倫敦攝影師畫廊舉辦了一場展覽，並出版新專著《Dorothy Bohm at 100 – A Life in Photography》。
