According to the 1970 UNESCO convention, a repatriation claim must be made within a year after the authorities in the country of origin become aware of the cultural artifact’s location. Galerie Peter Herrmann thus always shares all information about its pieces – especially the Nigerian bronzes pictured on these pages, exhibited between 1989 and today and published online since 1995. Our mailing list includes organizations that handle restitution matters as well as both independent and state-employed art historians from, e.g., Nigeria. Every buyer of an art object, whether it’s made of wood, clay or bronze, must be aware that from a European legal perspective, the piece usually was taken from the respective African country of origin on the basis of inadequate export documents. Neither international regulations nor national African legislation are conducive to free trade. Galerie Peter Herrmann tries to confront this dilemma by operating with the greatest possible transparency. The period from 1985 to 2015 in which Peter Hermann has been active is extraordinarily problematic for art historical research because African and European dealers worked as covertly as possible in a hazy legal situation and because important information that prior to 1970 might have passed from market to academy tended to be kept hushed up. When in doubt, Peter Herrmann asks that you please be in touch. It’s in the gallery’s best interest to resolve every questionable situation using all available means. Peter Herrmann, August 2015 Sources |

| Thèses à l'histoire d'arts
|
|
Since many years Peter Herrmann is supporting the thesis, that since around the tenth century there ist cast-bronze in the today Benin-City. In opposition to ethnologists, who declare a shift of this technique from Ife to Benin in the 14th century. The discussion on a nigerian blog is using ceveral arguments to change art history in many points and leads to the gallery website using stylistic comparisons and the TL-Analyses of Kotalla Laboratory. http://www.nairaland.com/392592/edo-colonized-yorubaland-not-vice/4 |

| The Monument - Art dans l'espace public
|
|
The so called Monument in Baguida was build by Paul Ahyi to remember the german-togolees friendship and was inaugurated in 1984. In this essay the middleman of art Peter Herrmann looks with humor more on the context then on the art itself. |

| ll "traffico" d'arte africana - by Matteo Koffi Fraschini
|
 |
|
Lomé (TOGO): Trafficante o commerciante? A seconda degli anni e delle circostanze, il ruolo di Peter Herrmann, tedesco sui 60 anni, è cambiato rispetto al fenomeno del commercio di arte africana tradizionale. Nessuno ha stime precise, ma è certo che tantissimi oggetti, per un valore di diversi miliardi di euro, sono stati comprati in Africa e rivenduti in Occidente durante l’ultimo secolo. Il cosiddetto “Traffico d’arte primitiva” nel continente nero è un mercato molto complicato, caratterizzato da diversi lati oscuri e pericolosi. I rischi sono tanti e a tutti i livelli. Alcuni esperti, africani e stranieri, parlano di un patrimonio culturale africano interamente rubato. Altri sostengono invece che si tratti di una compravendita di opere per molti aspetti legale, anche se difficilmente si trovino leggi apposite per regolarla. Dopo oltre 30 anni in questo mestiere, il Signor Hermann e altri conoscitori di tale controversa realtà hanno espresso le loro opinioni.

...This diatonic balaphone has 29 slats made of palisander. Calebasses serve as soundboxes, all elements are tied togehter with cowhide cords. In order to produce a sound that sends out soft metallic vibrations, membranes of a smoothed out spider´s nest have been attached to the inside of the soundboxes. Four sticks with natural caoutchouc for playing the instrument. The balaphone is 3 metres in length and up to 1.35 metres in width. Built for professional purposes, it is, to our knowledge, one of the largest instrument of its kind. During four months, Aly Keïta has traveled to three countries to find calebasses of the size needed.... more >> |

| Peter ToGo | Bye Bye Berlin |
Ce que certains considèrent comme la capitale artistique n'a été pour nous qu'une périphérie. Nous nous sommes maintenant rendus dans notre capitale, Lomé, où nous fêterons les 25 ans de la galerie. Beaucoup de personnes se demandent pourquoi Lomé. |
À Berlin, l'art contemporain n'a malheureusement pas pu s'imposer commercialement. La présentation des oeuvres des artistes a été exclusivement financée par la vente des objets classiques et anciens africains. Tout comme d'autres galeries berlinoises, nous n'avons pas pu engendrer des revenus suffisants lors des différents salons d'art hors de Berlin. Art Cologne, Art Karlsruhe, Johannesburg Art Fair : Malgré l'importance de la participation des artistes sur ces salons, les retombées financières ont été très décevantes. Berlin n'a presque pas de marché... pas même pour des livres d'art! En revanche, depuis ces dernière années, l'intérêt pour l'art ancien et classique ainsi qu'une nouvelle scène artistique jeune et dynamique se sont développés en Afrique de l'Ouest, parallèlement à une classe moyenne intéressée par l'art et au pouvoir d'achat élevé. De plus, cela fait des années que Lomé occupe la place de capitale marchande de l'art classique africain en Afrique de l'Ouest, et se trouve entre Lagos et Accra, deux nouveaux centres pour l'art contemporain. Sans oublier que nous participons à des projets avec Brazzaville, Douala et Dakar, dont nous sommes ainsi plus proche. Mais retournons à notre destination. Là où nous réaliserons à présent nos expositions. Vous voulez en savoir plus sur le Togo? Nous vous recommandons le site de la Deutschen Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) dont Otto Frick, un visiteur régulier de notre galerie, est l'auteur et le responsable. Vers le Togo.. Merci enfin à tous ceux qui viendront - nous l'espérons - nous rendre visite à Lomé |

| Bye Bye Berlin | Jürgen Schadeberg |
Voices from the Land & City in South Africa today |
 |
|
A gallery opening, a farewell gala, and an 82nd birthday party, all in one night. Although Berlin-born Jürgen Schadeberg and his wife Claudia are already leaving the city they had hoped to settle in, after having returned for only two years. They are moving on, to the south of Spain, where people will be willing to be photographed once more. We would like to hold a joyous vernissage a few days before he leaves and celebrate the move and his birthday with him. |
In the exhibition we show 75 photographs extracted from the series Voices from the Landand Tales from Jozi. An accompanying film program is being prepared. Voices from the Land depicts black and white images of agrarian South Africa, where people continue to live in near feudalism until today, and poverty is close at hand. This subtle and calm series displays the documentarian claim of the photographer. In contrast is the series Tales from Jozi. Here, the blazing city life jumps to color and shows us Johannesburg in all its facets. The books on these series and others, such as The Black and White Fifties, which we exhibited in 2003, will be sold in the gallery. |

The gallery’s path has led from the legendary Amiga Studios on Brunnenstraße, where we just turned off the lights, to the former artists academy and current Camaro Foundation at Potsdamer Straße 98A – a gorgeous building, also close to a park, located behind two passageways next to the legendary Wintergarten Varieté. |
The Association of Berlin Female Artists (VdBK) was founded in 1867 as the Association of Artists and Art Lovers of Berlin. In 1893, together with the women’s project Victoria-Lyceum, it moved to the brick building in the courtyard of Potsdamer Straße 98, which was number 39/39a back then. Paula Modersohn-Becker and Käthe Kollwitz were amongst the many women who studied and taught at this academy for female artists. |
Since the move in 1910, the building has had an eventful history. Many Berliners still remember the GdK, or Gallery of Arts, which operated in these spaces for many years before we arrived. We’ve loosely set May 7th as the opening date for the new premises, which will be elaborately reconstructed between now and then. The gallery program will resume on 250 square meters of exhibition space, 80 square meters of administration space and 70 square meters of storage space. The rooms are laid out very well and lend themselves readily to small events. The ambience around the gallery is wonderful and seems – with its round little bushes, fountains and marble grace – almost Italian. |
|
Ancient African art will be presented in an even larger area than previously – a 60-square-metre gallery used exclusively for that. Thematic exhibitions of contemporary art in the ground-level main hall will remain the primary attraction for the public and therefore receive spatial priority with a total of 190 square meters. For the first time, we will have a separate room for video presentations… |
