Jürgen Strasser, born and raised in the Berchtesgadener Land, worked for many years as a budget director in an advertising agency in Frankfurt after studying political science and sociology. In 2013 he turned his focus to photography and has since lived as an autonomous, visual artist in Wiesbaden and Worpswede. He is a member of the Professional Association of Visual Artists (BBK) and an appointed member of the German Society of Photography (DGPh). In 2015 he founded the »RAW Phototriennale Worpswede«, where he is still the director today. He will be responsible for the Wiesbaden Photo Days for the first time in 2022.
