Laszlo Moholy-Nagy - From the Design category:
Design... is the integration of technological, social, and economical requirements, biological necessities, and the psychological effects of materials, shape, color, volume and space. (Laszlo Moholy-Nagy)
Laszlo Moholy-Nagy - From the Experiments category:
The enemy of photography is the convention, the fixed rules of 'how to do.' The salvation of photography comes from the experiment. (Laszlo Moholy-Nagy)
Laszlo Moholy-Nagy - From the Future category:

Laszlo Moholy-Nagy - From the Magic category:
The magic possibility of framing a certain space and time is what brought me to photography. This process of recording elements of 3 dimensions in the flow of time, and fixing them in a 2 dimensional image, creates a new context for the elements of the photograph... (Laszlo Moholy-Nagy)
Laszlo Moholy-Nagy - From the Photography category:
-Painting, Photography, Film, 1925...
Photography, when used as a representational art, is not a mere copy of nature. This is proved by the rarity of the 'good' photograph. (Laszlo Moholy-Nagy)
Laszlo Moholy-Nagy - From the Photography category:

Laszlo Moholy-Nagy - From the Technology category:
The reality of our century is technology: the invention, construction and maintenance of machines. To be a user of machines is to be of the spirit of this century. Machines have replaced the transcendental spiritualism of past eras. (Laszlo Moholy-Nagy)
Laszlo Moholy-Nagy - From the Understanding category:
...the photograph, now they are detached from their original surroundings, they are involved in a close world in which they only relate to each other: all the rest of 'reality' has vanished. This allows us to see those elements from a new point of view and perhaps to reach a better understanding... (Laszlo Moholy-Nagy)

The organization of light and shadow effects produce a new enrichment of vision. (Laszlo Moholy-Nagy)
Laszlo Moholy-Nagy - From the Worth category:
It cannot be too plainly stated that it is quite unimportant whether photography produces 'art' or not. Its own basic laws, not the opinions of art critics, will provide the only valid measure of its future worth. (Laszlo Moholy-Nagy)
