Summary:	Werner Mantz (1901-1983) was a prominent architectural and industrial photographer in the 1920s and 1930s. His work occupies a unique historical position thanks to his visual language, technical prowess and use of natural light. As one of the most important photographers of the New Building movement, Mantz?s oeuvre bridges the gap between the often-anonymous nature of commissioned photography and the modernistƯ, artistic avant-garde movements of the interwar years, such as the Bauhaus. In the Ư1970s, Mantz was even hailed as the ?missing link? in the history of international photography. 00To date, only thematic selections from Mantz?s wide-ranging oeuvre have been exhibited. This monograph sets the record straight by showcasing, for the very first time, his immense versatility. Werner Mantz ? The Perfect Eye contains over 300 predominantly vintage images, ranging from architectural photography, advertising shots and portraits of adults and children, to views of industry and mines, religious subjects, shops, restaurants and interiors, as well as roads, public spaces, landscapes and travel photographs. That Mantz?s oeuvre belongs to the canon of international photography is indisputable.00Exhibition: Bonnefantenmuseum, Maastricht, The Netherlands (25.09.2022 - 26.02.2023).
