László Moholy-Nagy (/məˌhliˈnɒ/Hungarian: [ˈlaːsloː ˈmohojnɒɟ];[2] born László Weisz; July 20, 1895 – November 24, 1946) was a Hungarian painter and photographer as well as a professor in the Bauhaus school. He was highly influenced by constructivism and a strong advocate of the integration of technology and industry into the arts. A New York Times article called him "relentlessly experimental" because of his pioneering work in painting, drawing, photography, collage, sculpture, film, theater, and writing.[1]

An abstract of what I studied
Laszlo Moholy Nagy was a proponent to merge industry and art. Most of his work used perspective very uniquely. To him, the use of the camera was the route to something different. The use of the camera was a way to think through something different(to look at light and form)
