Edward Gordon Craig
1872 - 1966 (English)
Edward Gordon Craig was a modernist British actor, director and stage designer. During his lifetime he was mostly unable to realise his radically modern theatre concepts and his abstract stage aesthetics based on light and shadow. However, his ideas had a significant impact through his published work, drawings and woodcuts.
