GERMAN GRAPHIC DESIGNERS DURING THE HITLER PERIOD


BIOGRAPHICAL AND BIBLIOGRAPHICAL REFERENCES BY GERALD CINAMON

Design historians in America and Britain have tended to ignore the talents or
lives of those who remained in Germany during the Nazi regime as being unworthy
of attention. But the talents were there, and the lives went on. Simply because
these designers lived in Nazi Germany is no reason to ignore their work. Any
history of twentieth-century graphic design – and Germany’s particularly – must
take note of them and their work.

Generally, the lives and work of most émigré designers (usually Jewish) have
been covered in books and design journals. Here is featured, where known, what
happened to the designers that remained during the period 1933 to 1945 – the
Hitler period.

 * Notes on the site

This site has been built by processing Jerry’s original manuscript files.
Turning unstructured data into the kind of structured data we have here is never
an entirely foolproof process. There are lots of niggles with the process, some
we’re aware of, and some we aren’t. Please bear with us while we continue
working through them.
