Alexander Zöller

Alexander Zöller is a postdoctoral researcher at Film University Babelsberg KONRAD WOLF. He is part of the bilateral research project "(Con)Sequential Images" tracing the provenance, context, and appropriation of iconic moving images from the Nazi era and the implications of these audio-visual materials on today's memory culture. His focus is on the archival provenance of the relevant film materials and the role and function of film archives as custodians and gatekeepers that often shape the usage of these materials. His latest publication is ‘Filmography of the Genocide: Official and Ephemeral Film Documents on the Persecution and Extermination of the European Jews 1933–1945.’ Research in Film and History, 4 (February 2022): 1–160.
