Formed in 2009, the Archive Team (not to be confused with the archive.org Archive-It Team) is a rogue archivist collective dedicated to saving copies of rapidly dying or deleted websites for the sake of history and digital heritage. The group is 100% composed of volunteers and interested parties, and has expanded into a large amount of related projects for saving online and digital history.
Biography
Born Franz Catzenstein, he was the founder of the Galerie Matthiesen in Berlin in 1923. Married first in 1920 to Maria Matthiesen (1896-1936), he changed his name to Franz Zatzenstein-Matthiesen and later went by Francis M. Zatzenstein or Francis Matthiesen. Zatzenstein left Germany in 1933 and went eventually to London, where by 1936 he had established a new Matthiesen Gallery. The Berlin gallery, under the direction of long-time colleague Heinz Mansfeld, was forced to close in 1939.
With his first wife, he had a daughter Maren Beate Antonia Zatzenstein Matthiesen (b. 1921). Zatzenstein married secondly to Olga Petrovna Tarrash with whom he had a son, Patrick Matthiesen. With his third wife Fredericke Katherina Früh (b. 1906) he had a daughter Suzanne Matthiesen.
A collection of old master drawings from Matthiesen/Zatzenstein's estate were sold at Sotheby's London, 21 October 1963.
