йиндржих штырский (1899 - 1942)
Jindřich Štyrský was a Czech artist, photographer, poet, and writer. He is best known for his contributions to the Surrealist movement in Czechoslovakia during the 1930s and early 1940s.
Štyrský initially trained as a painter, but he soon became interested in photography and began experimenting with the medium in the early 1920s. He became associated with the Czech Surrealist Group in the mid-1930s and became one of its leading figures, alongside fellow artist and writer Toyen.
In addition to his photography, Štyrský was also a prolific writer and poet. He published several books of poetry.
Štyrský's photography is characterized by its surreal and dreamlike qualities, often featuring distorted figures and strange juxtapositions of objects. He also produced a series of photomontages, which combined different photographic elements to create unsettling and enigmatic images.
During World War II, Štyrský was persecuted by the Nazi regime for his art and writings. His work has since been recognized for its contribution to Surrealism in Czechoslovakia and its unique blend of photography, painting, and literature.
