In the late 1920s and 1930s, Theo Ballmer developed a body of photographic work closely aligned with the aesthetics of the New Typography and the emerging principles of modernist design. Strongly influenced by his training under Walter Peterhans at the Bauhaus and his engagement with the Constructivist movement, Ballmer’s photographs from this period often feature industrial objects, stark lighting, and carefully arranged compositions that emphasize form, texture, and geometric abstraction. – Some light scuff marks, otherwise in near excellent condition.
