Bruno Schultz
Bruno Schultz was a German publisher (ed. Robert & Bruno Schultz, Berlin, founded in 1877) and photographer. He supported all trends in modern art in the 1930s.[1]
In addition to his own photographs, he also published those of renowned photographers such as László Moholy-Nagy, Karl Blossfeldt, Hugo Erfurth, Albert Renger-Patzsch, and Raoul Hausmann.
From 1933 onwards, he contributed to the National Socialist intellectual propaganda policy.
In 1933, he published a collection of photographs, "Das Deutsche Lichtbild," which included 144 black-and-white photographs by Hugo Erfurth, Heinz Hajek-Halke, Heinrich Kühn, Martin Munkacsi, Alfred Eisenstaedt, Raoul Hausmann, František Drtikol, Karl Blossfeldt, etc., and two color plates by Willy Zielke.[2][3]
The portfolio "Das Deutsche Aktwerk," published in 1938, contains 24 30 x 40 cm plates of nude photographs by Bruno Schultz, Willy Zielke, Heinz von Perckhammer, Trude Fleischmann, Heinz Hajek-Halke, Ewald Hoinkis, Dorothea Wilding, Gerhard Riebicke, Josef Pecsi, Ursula Lang-Kurz, Kurt Wendler, Carl Semon, Alfred Grabner, Lala Aufsberg, and Max Rothkegel.[4][5]
In 1941, Schultz was a captain in the Oberkommando der Wehrmacht, the Armed Forces High Command, the supreme military command and control staff of Nazi Germany during World War II, that was directly subordinated to Adolf Hitler.
Schultz died of typhus in a prison camp in Russia.
