images that haunt us
Greatly influenced by the modernism of photography and its protagonists such as Brassai and László Moholy-Nagy Kinszki was an important spokesman and a committed representative of the ‘Neues Sehen’ [New Vision] movement in Hungary during the 1920s. He was particularly interested in macro photography for which he developed a special camera, the ‘Kinsecta’. Despite good contacts to countrymen abroad Kinszki didn’t succeed in leaving the country and he fell a victim of the Nazi regime due to his Jewish origin.
