Timeline

1908

Liselotte Grschebina (or Grjebina; 1908–1994) was an Israeli photographer.

Liselotte Grschebina was born Liselotte Billigheimer in 1908 in Karlsruhe, Germany.

Her parents were Rosa and Otto Billigheimer, a Jewish couple.

1916

Her father was killed in 1916 while serving in the German army.

1925

In 1925–29 Grschebina studied painting and graphic design at the local art academy, Badische Landeskunstschule Karlsruhe (BLK) and studied commercial photography at the School of Applied Arts in Stuttgart.

1929

In 1929 Grschebina began to teach photography in the advertising course, Badische Landeskunstschule Karlsruhe (BLK).

1930

Between the 1930s to 1950s Grschebina takes photographs for Palestine Railways, the large dairy company Tnuva, kibbutzim, and various private businesses.

1932

In January 1932 she opens Bilfoto, her own studio, announcing her specialisation in child photography, and takes on students.

1933

In 1933, following the Nazis come to power and the restrictions on professional freedom for Jews, Grschebina closed her studio.

Before leaving Germany, she marries Dr. Jacob (Jasha) Grschebin.

1934

The Grschebin couple reaches Tel Aviv in March 1934.

The same year, Grschebina opens the Ishon studio on Allenby Street with her friend Ellen Rosenberg (Auerbach), previously a partner in the Berlin photographic studio ringl + pit.

In 1934–47 Grschebina is appointed the official photographer for the Zionist women's organization WIZO.

Grschebina arrived in Palestine in 1934, a trained professional profoundly influenced by the revolutionary movements of the Weimar Republic: New Objectivity in painting and New Vision in photography, as well as by a number of prominent professors, including Karl Hubbuch and de:Wilhelm Schnarrenberger.

Unlike many of her colleagues in Palestine, who sought their identities in the collective Zionist endeavor by documenting and extolling it in their work, Grschebina did not use photography as a means of forming her identity.

She came with a full-fledged style and remained committed to Weimar artistic ideals and principles in her new home, where she continued to apply and develop them.

This exhibition premieres a major selection from among the 1,800 photographs that were given to the Israel Museum and unveils her life and work to the public for the first time.

Grschebina's artistic roots clearly lay in New Vision, which defined photography as an artistic field in its own right and called on camera artists to portray subjects in a new, different way to convey their unique qualities and their essence.

She did this through striking vantage points and strong diagonals, making masterful use of mirrors, reflections, and plays of light and shadow to create geometric shapes and to endow her photographs with atmosphere, appeal, and meaning.

In Germany, most of her photographs – usually advertising commissions – were taken in the studio.

In the land of Israel, she also worked outdoors, observing those around her with a clear, impartial eye.

She photographed people going about their daily routine, unaffected by the presence of the camera.

The viewer of her pictures feels like an outsider looking in, gaining a new, objective perspective on the subject: the "objective portrait . . . not encumbered with subjective intention" wherein, according to New Vision photographer László Moholy-Nagy, lies the genius of photography.

The photographs of Liselotte Grschebina, rediscovered casually, almost miraculously, in a cupboard in Tel Aviv, reveal a talent that might otherwise have remained forgotten.

1936

In 1936 the Ishon studio is closed when Rosenberg leaves the country; Grschebina continues to work from her home.

1939

In 1939, together with fellow photographers of German origin gathered in Tel Aviv, establishes the Palestine Professional Photographers Association (PPPA), the first independent photographers organisation in the country.

1994

Liselotte Grschebina died in Petah Tikva at the age of 86, on June 14, 1994.

2001

The archive of Liselotte Grschebina's photographs were given to the Israel Museum by her son, Beni Gjebin and his wife Rina, from Shoham, with the assistance of Rachel and Dov Gottesman, the museum president between 2001 and 2011.
