Steidl Verlag is a German publisher. The focus of the program is on international photographers as well as fiction. The publishing house is headed by Gerhard Steidl. After graduating from high school in Göttingen, Steidl worked as a printer and designer since 1969. In 1969 he founded his own publishing house. Influenced by Andy Warhol and Joseph Beuys, in 1970 he began collaborating with Klaus Staeck, whose posters and posters were published by Steidl. In 1972, the first book was published by Steidl-Verlag, a survey of the documentary. Political non-fiction books were added from 1974 onwards, fiction in the early 1980s, and the first paperback in 1989. When Günter Grass, who received the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1999 , left his then publishing house Luchterhand in protest in 1993, he found a new home at Steidl Verlag. For Günter Grass' 80th birthday, Steidl Verlag published a twelve-volume edition of his work. Gerhard Steidl said it was very important to him to publish these during the author's lifetime. In addition to Günter Grass, Steidl publishes current literature by authors such as Erich Loest, John McGahern, AL Kennedy, the Nobel Prize winner Halldór Laxness and journalists such as Oskar Negt and Hans Leyendecker. From 1996, Steidl also specialized in photography . He published the works of internationally known photographers such as Robert Frank, Joel Sternfeld, Richard Serra, Bruce Davidson, Arnold Odermatt , Edward Ruscha, Susan Meiselas, Karl Lagerfeld, Saul Leiter, Lou Reed, Martin Schoeller, Juergen Teller and many others. Advertising materials - including catalogs, flyers and invitations to haute couture shows - are produced for Chanel. The collaboration between Steidl and Lagerfeld lasted from the early 1990s until his death in 2019. In 2006, Lagerfeld said that Gerhard Steidl was the “best printer in the world”.
