Lisa Vollmer

Photographer and Gallery owner Lisa Vollmer was born in Berlin, Germany, and grew up in the Berkshire Hills of Massachusetts. She attended the Great Barrington Rudolf Steiner School and later achieved a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. After working for a renowned photo printing lab in NYC, Lisa traveled back to Berlin to earn a Masters in Art. When Lisa Vollmer returned to the US in 2003 she managed the lighting studio for the Maine Media Workshops. She then spent a decade working as an assignment photographer and consultant in Great Barrington before opening the Lisa Vollmer Photography Studio + Gallery, together with her mother and fellow photographer Sabine Vollmer von Falken.

The gallery opened its doors on April 30th, 2016. The inaugural exhibition, Portraits of Trees by Tom Zetterstrom, attracted hundreds of visitors to the new gallery space on 325 Stockbridge Road (Rt.7) in Great Barrington. The second show opened on July 15, featuring works by Thatcher Hullerman Cook, who collaborates with humanitarian aid and development organizations that work with refugees and other people affected by war, economic upheaval, and natural disasters. These international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) have sent him on assignment to over 60 countries. The third exhibition featured Lisa Vollmer’s own work entitled “Water”.

The gallery will hosts workshops and guest lectures and will features work by well-established contemporary photographers.
