About the artist

Hein Gorny

German

1904-1967

Hein Gorny (1904-1967) is considered a pioneering artist of New Objectivity. Like many innovators of photography in the first half of the 20th century, he was self-taught. His subjects are wide-ranging and include portrait, architecture, industrial, illustration and animal photography. Gorny became known above all as an advertising photographer for Bahlsen, Pelikan and AEG. He emerged as a pioneer of modern advertising photography, who understood how to translate the stylistic figures of New Vision and New Objectivity, characterized by the theories of the Bauhaus and the Deutscher Werkbund, into an applied style in his visual language. The symbiosis of two opposing attitudes gave rise to innovative visual and formal visual compositions that make him a photographic artist avant la lettre. His works are in major museums all over the world.
