Happy 175th Birthday Ernst Abbe! Today, 23 January 2015 marks the 175th annive...
Today, 23 January 2015 marks the 175th anniversary of the birth of Ernst Abbe (1840 – 1905). The physicist and part owner in optics company ZEISS and of the special glass manufacturer SCHOTT AG in Jena was not only an excellent scientist and entrepreneur, but also a generator of ideas and founder of the Carl Zeiss Foundation, as well as an important social reformer. His pioneering scientific discoveries on optics established a scientific basis for the construction of microscopes. With the founding of the Carl Zeiss Foundation in 1889 in Jena, he created a corporate model for ZEISS and SCHOTT which is still unique even now. His life's work endures to this day.

ZEISS Art Calendar Pictures Published as a Book The six editions of the acclaim...
The six editions of the acclaimed ZEISS Art Calendar printed to date have now been published in a book titled "ZEISS Art Calendar Vol 1." Publishing houses specializing in art were drawn to the artistic flair of these photographic productions which are issued exclusively for customers. This led to the idea of the book.
Six years, six photographers, six stories told through photographs of twelve prominent actors are featured in this ambitiously designed, large-format book. The calendar series begins with the photography of director and photographer Wim Wenders and continues with Bryan Adams, Ellen von Unwerth, Michel Comte, Mary McCartney and finally Douglas Kirkland, who staged the photographs for the 2015 edition.
ZEISS Art Calendar Vol 1 is published by teNeues and is priced at 69.90 euros (ISBN 978-3-8327-3236-3).
