About This Item
EB. Very Good-. Hardcover. Hardcover. 4to. Published by Athenäum Verlag, Bonn, Germany. , 1955. 108 pgs. Illustrated with 46 plates with b/w full-page illustrations. Text in English, French and German. DJ has shelf-wear present to the DJ extremities (large chip present to the rear panel of the DJ). Bound in cloth boards with titles present to the spine and front board. Boards have light shelf-wear present to the extremities. No ownership marks present. Text is clean and free of marks. Binding tight and solid. Heinz Hajek-Halke is one of the undiscovered geniuses of early twentieth century experimental photography. He surmounted the purely documentary nature of photography in the turbulent 1920s and developed a variety of aesthetically challenging photo-manipulation techniques which he applied to both personal and commissioned advertising work. His techniques were the innovative forerunner of digital photography and web design. This large-format monograph is the first extensive review of Hajek-Halke`s work, encompassing all the creative phases of his career - his nude photography, photo-montages, picture stories, macro-biological images and the abstract Lichtgrafiken (light graphics) of his later work. It contains reproductions of his vintage prints and an abundance of other material, including photo collages, magazine advertisements, dust jackets for books, and graphic designs." EB; 8vo 8" - 9" tall .
