Text dt. - „Die Wilhelm Wagenfeld Stiftung verwahrt über 2.000 Fotos aus der Werkstatt des einflussreichen Gestalters. Sie wurden noch nie in der Öffentlichkeit gezeigt und bilden nun den Ausgangspunkt einer Ausstellung über das Verhältnis von Fotografie und Produktdesign. Sachfotografie ist nie so »objektiv«, wie sie auf den ersten Blick erscheinen mag. Sie zeigt nicht nur den Gegenstand selbst, sondern thematisiert zugleich das Verhältnis des Menschen zur Realität. Der Band zeigt Fotos aus den 1920er Jahren bis heute.“ (Versandkat. Frölich & Kaufmann, Berlin 04.2016).
