| Naturist Movement Photographers of Germany, Russia and Eastern Europe The Naturist movement in 1920s and '30s Europe grew from philosophic and medical beliefs that large doses of exercise outdoors in the sun were good for the mind and the body. Writers, photographers and military leaders of the time all championed naturism, and none more ardently than the Germans. Thus in Germany, some military exercises were conducted in the nude and several photojournalists, like Gerhard Reibicke produced photo tableaus of the training sessions. In other Eastern European countries, photographers like E.V. Kankovsky followed suit. Today, the history of the naturist movement in Germany and the development of Aryanism, cannot be separated in the appreciation of these intriguing photographic works of art.
