The internationally renowned Colombian artist Doris Salcedo received the first Possehl Prize for International Art in the Kunsthalle St. Annen in Lübeck in 2019. The catalogue of her first solo exhibition in Germany was published by the curator of the exhibition, Oliver Zybok, on behalf of the Possehl Foundation. It is available from the publisher, Buchhandlung WALTHER KÖNIG: verlag@buchhandlung-walther-koenig.de; www.buchhandlung-walther-koenig.de.
To mark its centenary, the historian Axel Schildt wrote a history of the Possehl Foundation: “POSSEHL. History and Character of a Foundation” was published at the start of our jubilee year and is available from bookshops (in German only).

It is available to download and the print version can also be ordered here (in German only).
