Andreas Mu¨he (b. 1979, Karl-Marx-Stadt) came to photography through an apprenticeship as a photo laboratory technician, after which he worked as an assistant to Ali Kepenek and Anatol Kotte. Mu¨he has worked as a freelance photographer and has published his portraits of actors, musicians, and artists in a wide variety of magazines and newspapers. An early supporter is F.C. Gundlach, who describes his work as being “of extraordinary consequence.” Since 2010, Mu¨he has exhibited his works in solo and group exhibitions at museums including the Kunsthalle Rostock, the NRW Forum in Du¨sseldorf, the Martin-Gropius-Bau in Berlin, the Benaki Museum in Athens, and the House of Photography at the Deichtorhallen Hamburg.
