Otto Steinert was a German photographer and key figure in the Subjektive Fotografie movement, known for using experimental techniques to express emotional and abstract ideas rather than objective reality. His work, characterized by high contrast, multiple exposures, and unconventional angles, explores themes of light, shadow, and form, often blurring the boundary between photography and modern art. Steinert’s influence reshaped post-war European photography, encouraging a more personal, subjective vision that celebrated artistic experimentation. – Corners slightly bumped, some traces of previous mounting on verso, otherwise in near excellent condition.
