Sibylle Bergemann (1941-2010) was born and raised in Berlin and first worked as a secretary for Das Magazin. In the mid 1960s, Bergemann met photographer Arno Fischer, whom she married in 1985. Together they nurtured mutual interests in art and culture and gathered in their home/studio a community of visionaries: writers, directors, performers, painters, designers and photographers.
